pattern aliases
I was unable to find an answer to this question on the wiki, in the manual or in the mailing list archives. Is it possible to create aliases for commonly used patterns? For instance, when I begin working on project "foo", I often start by limiting my messages to something like "(~f example.org | ~f sample.com) ~s foo !~s PATCH" It gets tedious to type that each time. I'd like to put something like this in my .muttrc pattern_alias foo (~f example.org | ~f sample.com) ~s foo !~s PATCH and then just limit my messages to the pattern "foo". Is something similar possible? Thank you. -- Michael

Maybe that's not so > elegant, but it seems to work just fine. That works great. Thank you for the suggestion. -- Michael
