If you're using exim, you might try using the .forward file filtering built into exim instead of trying to do it in mutt, if you're having trouble. For example, straight from the README on exim, I have this in my .forward which puts all the Debian lists in their own folders... if $h_x-mailing-list matches "^<debian-(.*)@lists\\\\.debian\\\\.org>" then seen save $home/Mail/debian-lists/$1 endif I have other ones for other mailing lists, etc. If I remember correctly, you may have to turn this feature on in the latest exim package? Don't remember. Good luck! Nate On Sat, Jan 08, 2000 at 04:23:00PM +1100, Hamish Moffatt wrote: > > I'm subscribed to a mailing list which causes mutt problems with > threading.
