Thanks Matt! --- That's what I was looking for.

However, I had written the pattern incorrectly by including that leading space.
Older versions of mutt were simply dropping that part of the pattern. With
the new quoting, that part now became significant and the pattern didn't
match anything -- easily fixed now.

Thanks for the help.
