Standard English quoting rules... > Searching for "Derek" with the default $simple_search "~f %s | ~s %s" > returns lots and lots of messages from "Derek Martin". He means, when he himself is the sender (i.e. the "from" address). My first message was meant to be a hint, rather than to spell out the answer. Here's another hint: simple_search, like index_format, is a variable. It can be changed... You probably can't get precisely what you want, but you can approximate it. Search != display--they do different things, and have different behaviors. I happen to think the default behavior is sensible. -- Derek D.
