I find the status insufficient for quickly identifying the most important e-mails -- only colour seems to be able to do that, which is why I'm asking about how to go about that directly. pgpDjwzKNmjD8.pgp Description: PGP signature

Re: Distinguishing Cc'd e-mail from To'd email
I got an interesting mail from Nikola Petrov off-list saying that his Mutt configuration does not interpret ~p as including Cc'd mails. - In my case, if I limit to ~p, I get messages with the C flag set. - In his case, if he limits to ~p, he (apparently) does not. Is there some configuration option that changes what ~p matches? pgp2c48XLXB5G.pgp Description: PGP signature

You can use simple patterns to color the index For example, I have: color index brightyellow default ~P to make messages sent by me yellow in the index.

Distinguishing Cc'd e-mail from To'd email
Right now I color my e-mails bright red when they match ~p. This is useful, but it aso highlights when I am Cc'd on a message, and I would like to only have e-mails that have me in the To header to be highlighted. Of course, I can use ~c and ~t, but this doesn't consult alternates (since it requires putting in the expression to match), so it would require me to manually maintain both alternates *and* the list of colored expressions. Is there some way to emulate having ~p only match messages To me without also matching those which are just Cc'd to me without maintaining another copy of my alternates?
