% Grepmail is much better than the ordinary grep (customized for grepping
% through mbox folders) - and afaik it works great along with mutt.
Hokay; I'll check it out. If you're familiar with it, though ...
I had a given email address string ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) that I knew was in
the folder (=F.mutt) and I wanted to see the actual message in its thread
context. I knew it was in there because I grepped for it across all of
my folders (Mail/F.*) and got back a result.
I then went to my mutt folder mail instance and tried a / search for it,
both with and without qualifications, but the message wasn't found
because it was part of a collapsed thread.
What will grepmail get me here?
