(fix text width please) not true. on my terminal in pager view, left and right arrows go to previous and next message, respectively. with pager_index_lines set, this can more or less emulate the index-preview design of other MUA's like Outlook. as such, it is entirely possible to fall into the trap of thinking the pager /w index lines is actually an index with a preview. doing so, of course, causes one to think that a mark_read_threshold variable (or something) would be useful. at any rate, i think Laas is correct in that mutt is behaving as designed, but i don't think it's such a horrible idea to put a feature like this in. no one has to use it, and those who would use it, will probably appreciate it. peace out, -- *------------------------* // ste\/e || 0x44288D05 // *------------------------*
