Sounds more like a documentation bug rather than Mutt bug. I wouldn't
personally expect ~A to match anything *outside* of the limit scope.
UI'd be very unhappy if I deleted ~A under a limit and then found out
later I deleted *every* message in the folder (not that I've ever tried
that).
Maybe there should be pattern which matches all messages, even those
which are outside of the current limit scope? Or maybe there is and I
just need to RTFM...
