Actually, Hal, it's seqname:next, I think. As long as I'm using the
bandwidth to send a message, here's a longer example:
mark (lists all sequences)
show unseen:first (shows first message in "unseen" seq)
rmm; show unseen:next (removes first message, shows next in seq)
One thing I've always wanted to be able to do is to use something
like "last:10" (which works without a sequence) to a sequence, like:
rmm dumpus:last:10
But I haven't known how to do that without a little scripting. Anyone?
