Re[solved]: debian-user and mutt...
Thanks Ken,
Looks like another neat feature I hadn't stumbled across before..
I also found (by trial and error - havn't found it stated in the
docs yet) that by using 'lists' instead of 'subscribe' I can
get the L command to work without changing the listing format,
which is what I initially wanted..
My mutt seems to accept either version of the commands you
suggested, which for the 'lists' version gives me:
1156 s 02/09 [ 0] Ken Wahl (1.7K) Re: debian-user and mutt...
and for 'subscrube' gives:
1156 sL 02/09 [ 0] Ken Wahl (1.7K) Re: debian-user and mutt...
The latter seems to do everything I want...
So the bottom line seems to be that the Debian way of organizing
a list is superior, so long as you have a suitable MUA and are
sufficiently familiar with its features - or know someone else
who is ;)..
Regards,
DigbyT
