Like: /search search for a regular expression When being in the 'sent'-folder, '/' is bound to search, as documented in '?'. When I hit '/', a search-line appears but it nevers return what I search for: Search for: Harry - Not found. but when scrolling down, Harry is on line/number 128 Has .muttrc changed somewhere?; I use mutt for a very long time now (since v0.93?) and go as little as possible through working configurations...

Possibly you see Harry because it's in an alias, but is not actually in the message as part of the To: address. -- David Champion • d...@bikeshed.us
search in sent
Hello, I may make a mistake, but I fail to search in my sent mailbox. In other mailboxes, by hitting '/' I can search the adress and subject fields. In sent this does not work. Are there search options I am unaware of, or is something else the matter? I use Maildir if important. Thanks
