That's a good idea. But I think that can be accomplished w/o a regex by listing `[listname]' as a prefix to list for each list you are on. I'm hesitant to try to use a regex because the only regex code in nmh is strictly for pick and generalizing it or making it use POSIX regular expressions is more than I want to take on at the moment. Yeah, I'm chicken, I admit it. Thanks. Jeff -- Jeffrey C.
