No it shouldn't. Never operate on non-visible messages. You might argue it should un-collapse all threads that match and then tag them. That would would be a really nice feature actually. Un-collapse threads when messages are matched by any operation. Any takers? > Collapse and limit are different.

Messages you cannot see and therefor check that it's ok to delete them? Doesn't feel right to me. Now it that feature mentioned above existed... ;) Michael -- BOFH excuse #241: _Rosin_ core solder?
