This is a nice solution but I just discovered C-M-t and friends and also labels. My problem is I read my mails from one and only one mailspool (/var/mail/zedek as asked to fetchmail). Well I will try to live as is. I have another trouble : when pressing m, I end up into a Message buffer and not into a mail-mode buffer. What should I tweak to use the default mail-mode ?
