Thanks for the correction. Do you happen to know if this is a > principal restriction in nnir, or only when using the IMAP search back > end? I don't know, I use it only for searching nnimap groups. But I think about switching to nnmairix anyway: - It's much faster (the imap search on my local dovecot server seems to do simple grepping, no indexing involved) - I get strange results for `G G Tassilo Horn RET'. It seems to find all mails in the group, although most of them don't contain my name, neither in any header nor in the body. If I restrict the search to some field using `C-u G G RET ' it seems to work, though... Bye, Tassilo -- My opinions may have changed, but not the fact that I am right.
