Good point. I agree. Not necessarily 'c' though. Weird, the documentation has (under pattern matching) ~N New messages ~O Old messages ~U Unread messages Just wondering, what is an Unread message if its not New or Old, unless its New AND Old together? Just a quick grep through the docs reveals: When changing folders, Mutt fills the prompt with the first folder from the mailboxes list containing new mail (if any), pressing <Space> will cycle through folders with new mail. The (by default unbound) function <next-unread-mailbox> in the index can be used to immediately open the next folder with unread mail (if any). Could you try that, and see what happens? -- "If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing." --- Malcolm X
