### How to get rid of duplicate msgs?
|
|
|
|
|
|
Use the "~=" mutt-pattern ([manual.txt]([MuttWiki](MuttWiki) "wikilink") section
|
|
|
4.2) to delete or tag them. Beware: in old versions this pattern works
|
|
|
only when you sort the folder by "thread".

### How to change the order within a thread?
|
|
|
|
|
|
### How to sort threads based on all the messages in the thread?
|
|
|
|
|
|
RTFM **sort\_aux**, it controls not just the order of messages within
|
|
|
each thread, but also the order of threads themselves\!
|
|
|
|
|
|
A good use for this is:
|
|
|
|
|
|
` sort_aux=last-date-received`
|
|
|
|
|
|
so that threads with messages received recently will show up later in
|
|
|
the index (by default threads are sorted based on the first message in
|
|
|
the thread).
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Why are some msgs threaded and others not?
|
|
|
|
|
|
You have some msgs which don't have correct
|
|
|
|
|
|
`In-Reply-To:`
|
|
|
`References:`
|
|
|
|
|
|
headers (or not set at all) and you've turned on
|
|
|
|
|
|
`$strict_threads`
|
|
|
|
|
|
### What do "-\>", "-?-" and "\*\>" mean in thread trees?
|
|
|
|
|
|
When you turn off
|
|
|
|
|
|
`$strict_threads`
|
|
|
|
|
|
msgs with similar subjects get grouped together. In those threads "-\>"
|
|
|
indicates **real** threads (by the above mentioned headers) and "\*\>"
|
|
|
indicates **pseudo** threads (by subject only).
|
|
|
|
|
|
"-?-" indicates a referenced msg, which is missing in the current
|
|
|
folder.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Why is the tree display screwed, I see garbage chars in front of the arrows?\!
|
|
|
|
|
|
Try setting **$ascii\_chars** on. If the display is still messed up,
|
|
|
then you have a problem (i.e. flea). Otherwise the fancy tree chars
|
|
|
resulted from a bad combination of your used terminal emulation and/or
|
|
|
wrong $TERM setting in the shell, or maybe even $LC\_CTYPE or $LANG (see
|
|
|
"man locale"). See [MuttFaq/Charset](MuttFaq/Charset). |
