"when you want something done, you have to do it yourself." enough w/ all the fudging! given all the guesses flying around, i fed up and tried on my own. so here it is... # next three lines should be one; # wrapped for email macro index <Esc>z \ '<tag-pattern> ~P<enter><tag-prefix><clear-flag>N<untag-pattern> ~P<enter>' \ "mark messages read sent by me" # # after defining key binding, make it execute for every folder # folder-hook . 'push \ez' ...i tried to put the whole macro in to the folder hook; but i kept getting "unknown command" w/... folder-hook . '<tag-pattern>' ...and "too many arguments" w/ ... folder-hook . 'push T~P' ...so i resorted to create a key binding and execute it as shown. given above quoted folder-hook syntax, it seems now that i may not be using the right syntax for "push". however the given "push" syntax seems too cryptic to follow w/o a manual on hand. - parv --
