I have to admit my ignorance then. I'm a keen mutt user, but I cannot find that feature (!) I can delete threads OK, but I had to resort to procmail rules in order to direct any *future* replies in the thread to /dev/null. to .procmailrc rules. My problem is the "(Way) OT Threads" threads that I'd rather just ignore it for the future. And since I do not want to blacklist individuals I have to blacklist by MessageIDs in the References: header... And it's handy to kill off threads for other reasons (i.e. "looks boring", whatever) Any RTFM pointers? -- Karl E.
