For this, the manual wroted by Micheal Elkin and others veteran mutt-users is quite clear . Your idea about alias in bashrc is also a good point, I will put it in mine . Well, I missed some descriptions: as you see, each time the key 'c' is pressed (or in console mode 'mutt -y'), we can see a resume of all mail-files with amount in bytes . What I would like to see more is the number of mails in each file, something like when I start 'mutt' without option and the $spoolfile is shown with that information (number of mails). I think of some macro menu format . There are surely already the solution(s) but I didn't find yet in the manual, that's why I would like to learn from mutt-users . I hope I explain correctly the question this time . Thanks for your discussions, Truong,
