After I type 'l' to see only the messages matching a given pattern, I'd like to get back to seeing the whole mailbox. Is there a way of removing the 'l' filter besides reopening the mailbox? The simpler way would be 'l'+Enter, but it does not work. I had a look in the '?' list of all keybindings, but found nothing. Did you try C-g yet? C-g cancels in just about any program... C-g will not work, I think. But press l, remove your old search pattern with C-a C-k, then put a . (pattern wich match anything...), and you have everything back. A shortcut for unlimiting would be nice, though. You don't need to do C-a C-k to remove the old pattern. Anything you key will overwrite the old pattern automatically. I.E. just key l.ENTER

Better use '.*' if you really mean everything. Suppose your view displays only subject line, and the subject is blank. IIRC Mutt doesn't limit by the columns displayed in the view but defaults to limiting by From: and Subject: I think there is a configuration variable that allows you to change this. So even if the subject is blank l.ENTER should still show messages with a blank subject (assuming that From: is not blank) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Where to go from here
Okay, I have been trying to get a usefulDebian unstallationupfor about 5 weeks now. I can get the base system installed but then where do I look for new packages (the iso image contains next to nothing from what I can tell)? I don't know what to set in the /etc/apt/sources.list file. I probably have missed something in some of the documents but the dselect-beginners guide doesn't tell you much of anything. I'm looking to find xfree86-4.0.*, kde-2.2 and Mozilla or netscape. I guess I could build the whole system from source but I figure there has to be a way or all the debian developers are just wasting their time. When I state in the sources.list file that apt can look in the unstable tree it seems to automatically tell itself to remove a whole bunch of packages. I'm really getting bitter. I know I could just go to Redhat and grab that and install it but this is a labour of love. I see the power of apt and dselect I just don't know how to harness it. Maybe I'm just supposed to grab single debs off the net, I don't know. Any help or direction (maybe there is a better dselect guide) would be much appreciated. Thanks, Colin
