Hi, What about the ”limiting" function using `l` ? It's similar to search but only matching emails will still visible.
1. Hit 'l' 2. The limiting pronpt shows up. 3. Enter 'IO Ninja' 4. Enter 5. mutt only show up matching emails 6. You can't use 'n' or 'N' but 'j' and 'k'. Does it satisfy your use case ? ache Le Wed, Sep 15, 2021 at 04:05:56PM -0700, li...@ifohancroft.com a écrit : > Hi, > > I'd like to make mutt hide the emails not matching the entered search term. > > Let's say I want to search for emails that have 'IO Ninja' in the subject: > > 1.
