I didn't just write the above macro off-the-cuff. I actually tried it
out, and got it working, exactly as you see it above.

see what it is that the macro is supposed to do. See the section on
limit-patterns, or pattern matching.

There is no need, because Mutt performs pattern-matching.

There should have been a doc/manual.txt file which was included with
your Mutt source code. That's the manual I refer to above.
