That would be useful to me, and > I'm willing to work on it. I would appreciate that feature very much. Another related feature that would be nice is one to generated a summary by filtering the messages currently listed in the summary. For instance, suppose that C-u C-M-t reduced the current summary by excluding the messages whose subjects don't match the specified regexp. This would make it possible to check for a conjunction of conditions. And membership in a thread, if you're added that, could be one of them. -- Dr Richard Stallman (https://stallman.org) Chief GNUisance of the GNU Project (https://gnu.org) Founder, Free Software Foundation (https://fsf.org) Internet Hall-of-Famer (https://internethalloffame.org)
