In mutt, press F1¹, then either search for %L (about the third hit includes the text "GROUP"), or go to section "3.1. Pattern Modifier". (It's the same place.) ... > Where is -group within an alias command documented? In the same manual. That's where I found it, after a bit of poking about. (I'm no mutt guru either.

If you've only been looking in http://www.mutt.org/doc/manual/, then that's perhaps a fair question. The 'F1' manual is infinitely superior w.r.t. ease of finding stuff. ¹ If F1 doesn't work for you, then you could manually zcat /usr/share/doc/mutt/manual.txt.gz Erik -- manual, n.: A unit of documentation. There are always three or more on a given item. One is on the shelf; someone has the others. The information you need is in the others. - Ray Simard
