I have the following in my muttrc, as the last line: push "<tag-pattern>~s abrechnung<enter><tag-prefix-cond><clear-flag>N<save-message><enter><end-cond><sync-mailbox>"
(I'm sending myself backups of a spreadsheet and want to immediately archive these to a different mail folder, unsetting the "new" flag). Basically, this line doesn't always get executed, meaning that new mail matching the pattern "~s abrechnung" stays in my spoolfile, marked as new. When I say "doesn't always get executed", I mean that when I test this repeatedly in a row, restarting mutt when there is mail matching the pattern in my spoolfile, the desired effect (mail matching pattern saved to other mailbox) occurs roughly 10-25 percent of the time. This estimate is for my normal way to start mutt, which is from a shell script with the line: xfce4-terminal --geometry=100x63+5+5 -T mutt -e mutt When I test it calling "mutt" directly from a running terminal, the success rate is almost 100 percent, but I think there have been cases where it didn't work there, either (but can't replicate this at the moment). Is there any thing I can do to make the push function work more often, ideally 100 percent, when I start mutt from a shell script with a line like the one above? m.
