Hi, I have attention problem. Often times I need to check mail but I
do not want to see all mail because I feel overwhelm. I just want to
see mail I expect potentially from a single person.

Suppose I expect important email from Jian. I currently do as follows:

    mutt -e 'push "l~f'"Jian"'\n"'

It almost work. But for a splitted second, the screen shows all emails
(because it takes time to process filter request). I know this sound
weird to all, but even in this splitted second I see all emails and I
get nervous with everything I must accomplish, and I cannot focus.

Is there a way to ask mutt to wait until filter complete before show
the results, so mutt never shows all emails?

Kind regards,

Xu
