I use the editlabel scriptand the setup at this site: http://blitiri.com.ar/p/other/mutt-labels/ This adds labels to the X-Label field, and it is easy to limit the view to a specific tag. For global search you can use the "mu" search tool which can search in the X-label field over several mailboxes and return the result promptly: http://www.djcbsoftware.nl/code/mu/ Jostein
