Better use '.*' if you really mean everything. Suppose your view displays only subject line, and the subject is blank. I belive the limit command defaults to the simple_search parameter if you don't use any patterns, and the default simple_search searches the From: address and the Subject:, so both would have to be null. Regardless, it seems if a message has neither a From: or a Subject: header l. still selects it. Even if I delete all headers and leave just a \n at the start of the message (don't try that with mbox). As does these: l!~s. l!~f.

Better use '.*' if you really mean everything. Suppose your view displays only subject line, and the subject is blank. IIRC Mutt doesn't limit by the columns displayed in the view but defaults to limiting by From: and Subject: I think there is a configuration variable that allows you to change this. So even if the subject is blank l.ENTER should still show messages with a blank subject (assuming that From: is not blank) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Wishlist bug has been filed. It's just a paradigm thing. It's like subtracting or adding negative numbers: they're the same thing. We have seperate words for the same operation as a grammatical convenience. I think it would be less elegant to introduce an additional keybinding for no good reason. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
