By way of explanation: the catch here is that because of mutt's parsing rules with quotations, this expression is scanned twice and needs to have the backslashes themselves escaped. You'll find this often when writing various rules, and if you start putting them into hooks you may find that you need another couple depths of escaping. (At such a point it helps to source another muttrc rather than to embed all your commands within the hook.) -- David Champion • [email protected] • IT Services • University of Chicago
