macro just won't work!

[jhelfman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

I am using this macro, well... I would like to use this macro. It works
by cutting and pasting into limit command, but will not work otherwise.
 
macro index \Cm '<limit>~f "e...@xxxxxxxx ~f ema...@xxxxxxxx ~s TEST
~t ema...@xxxxxxxx ~t ema...@xxxxxxxx ~t ema...@xxxxxxxx"<enter>'
 
I've changed all the email names for obvious reasons.

I've tried putting ~f (email|email) | ~t (email|email). I've changed
where the quotes are, and just about everything else I can think of to
match it.

I've also worked and just using the ticks, and removing the quotes. That
doesn't work either.

Not sure what else to try. I've got it to work on some things I've
tried, but I won't be albe to view the email. It will try to execute
code. I'm sure if this is based on the pipe delimter. The only way to view
email after this is to shut down mutt and restart it.

This command with a pipe before the tildes will work inside of mutt,
but not as a macro.

Thanks,
Jason
