Dear all, could someone explain how to use date query? As of Oct 2012 Jani added set of patches doing date query. When I open in emacs search, and I type 'date:today', some output appears, but not the one I would expect. Interesting enough is, that if I press 'da' and then , it offers date search. Is there any kind of manual how to use it? I'm of course particularly interested in 'today', 'yesterday', 'last week', 'last month' :) thanks david
