My conjecture is the that back-tick trick only work for the first line for output and it will ignore the rest of lines. Huh. I experience the same behavior, and a little searching confirms that backticks only evaluate the first line. What an odd restriction. I found the general solution at http://wiki.mutt.org/?ConfigTricks in the "Generating a dynamic muttrc file" section. Use the same muttGmail script, but include it in .muttrc with source 'muttGmail foo|' Note that the quote chars are single quotes, not backticks, and the command has to end with a pipe char.

I will experiment further this w/e. I thought there was a way of keeping emails on the server as that is offered by most email clients. That is what i've done in the past just in case i have a problem and have to reinstall everything - seems the email app remembers what emails it has downloaded. james

I used Kyle's approach (I read it last night ;) ). But this is also really nice. Thank you both, problem solved! folder-hook =inbox 'push "~(~r>3m)=archivos/inbox~A"' -- Javier Rojas GPG Key ID: 0xA1C57061 pgp8dFNH3cdpS.pgp Description: PGP signature
