A bunch of people have already answered this, (giving the correct answer
as limiting to ~A), but I still like 'l.', that is - limit and a dot.
Internally, mutt transforms a lone dot to ~A, and it's right below the "l"
on most keyboards :)

This is weird, as I've noticed something similar. In my case, all New
messages become Old. I have mark_old unset, and I'm using the patch
(attached below - it came from this list a few weeks ago, and I tweaked it
for 0.95.4) to allow there to be Old messages at all.
