I have an occasional but somewhat annoying problem. I made a program
to edit X-Labels to somewhat emulate the behavior of gmail. When using
my mail account remotely I use IMAP to access a dovecot server. Everything works
fine, but occasionally, the network fails and the connection is broken
before I sync the mailbox. When I open the mailbox again, there are two
versions of each edited message: the original that had been marked for
deletion but had not been deleted and had lost the mark, and the same
message but with the X-Label in place. Currently I order my mailbox by
threads, and when I find a message that is x-labeled and marked as
duplicate, I know that I can (manually) delete its predecessor. Is
there some mutt expression that would  allow me to select all those
messages automatically? The expression ~= doesn't work, as it
correspond to the successors, i.e., the messages that have been
labelled and that I want to keep.

Best regards,
Luis
