*grin* % % For lurkers it would be "l!." (untested). Heh. % % Seriously though, it might be time to use procmail. First collect a list of % all the oldest parent (i.e. thread starting) M-IDs from all of your messages % (this might be possible from mutt) and procmail anything referencing or % matching one of those M-IDs into a new folder. This takes up more disk space % than a limit, but you can delete it when you're done. Well, that's not really what I need... The specific case is my mutt-users folder. When I reply to a message I keep the original, and then of course get my reply. Once the thread dies I still have the original and my reply, but by now it's two pages back in the index. If the case is closed, so to speak, and there was nothing else of value in the thread, then I want to delete it -- but to do that I have to be able to effectively limit my view to those threads.
