I just tried Rmail, again I had a very positive impression, and again I
regret that it works only with mbox files and not with Maildirs.
Anyway, unless I misunderstand something, the "summary" in Rmail is called
the message "index" or "list" by other MUAs. And the rmail-summary-by-*
commands are called "filter", "select" (a subset of messages) or "limit"
(the index to a subset of messages) by other MUAs. Is "limit" perhaps a
better word?
For example, rmail-summary-by-recipients would become "Display a summary
limited to messages with the given RECIPIENTS." This seems close to what
the manual already says: "C-M-r makes a partial summary mentioning only
the messages that have one or more recipients matching the regular
expression rcpts".
And rmail-summary-apply-filters-consecutively would be
rmail-summary-gradual-limiting or rmail-summary-incremental-limiting.
