Hello Xavier. Sorry for the late response. We just had two wonderful spring days, the first two really good days, and i was out for cycling, and then very tired. (Nature is pretty destroyed, you have to drive for an hour before it gets better, and in winter it is dark early in the afternoon..)

It really is not that the MUA dislikes you because you do not search for vim, i hope. But f '@list-id@@emacs.devel' should match (if the list really is "emacs.devel"). Note you do not need to quote the dot/period, or better, you really must not, the above is not a regular expression. It only is treated as a regular expression if any of ^[*+?|$ is seen in the construct.

The v14.10 series will bring, yet likely not with .0, unfortunately, and finally, the possibility to chain search expressions, with the above constructs that is. As in '@list-id@mailx && x && !y' etc. As of today something similar can only be done with the IMAP search expressions, but which do not support regular expressions. --steffen | |Der Kragenbaer, The moon bear, |der holt sich munter he cheerfully and one by one |einen nach dem anderen runter wa.ks himself off |(By Robert Gernhardt)
