virtual folders, virtual groups?

virtual folders, virtual groups?

[Uwe Brauer]

Hello

As a long time user of VM I enjoyed very much  what is called, virtual
folders.  This feature allowed  by in  my INBOX, to  select msg, whose
subject, recipients or  whatsoever satisfied a certain condition.  For
example all msg  with the subject: POSSIBLE SPAM  would  appear in one
virtual folder.

I know I can *sort* msg in  my group buffer,  but it would be handy to
create a virtual  group, in the same spirit  as above. I looked in the
documentation of virtual groups  but it does not seem  to me  the same
thing I am talking about.

Thanks

Uwe Brauer

How about limiting?  `/ s POSSIBLE SPAM RET'?

Bye, Reiner.

I think you just want to do a limit (in a group summary, type "/ C-h"
to see the available limits).  It's very easy to undo a limit too.

If you mean that you want preset limits, you can just use the functions
invoked by the / commands with the appropriate parameters and bind
them to a key.

This is bound to be significantly faster than entering several virtual
groups, and I can't see any difference.

I did this. I don't see a possibility to set a limit for people only
in my BBDB. Could such a feature me implemented?

Thanks

Yes.  Is anyone interested in doing it?
