Hi all. I'm currently using the following macro:macro index M "<tag-pattern>.*\r<tag-prefix><clear-flag>N<untag-pattern>.*\r" "Mark all messages in this mailbox as read"
First idea, though it may not help a whole lot:macro index "<tag-pattern>~U<enter><tag-prefix><clear-flag>N<untag-pattern>.<enter>" "Mark all messages in this mailbox as read"
The change, using a pattern of ~U, makes it only touch those few messages that are unread, rather than having to touch every message.
in order to mark all messages in a particular mailbox as read, however also using Maildir format results in a rather horrific performance hit should the mailbox contain more than even fifty or so messages.
Second idea: turn on indexing in your filesystem, like so: tune2fs -O +dir_index /dev/whatever After you do that, it's probably a good idea to do this: e2fsck -D /dev/whatever ~Kyle --Every American expects and deserves clean air, and then we act on that belief, then we will set an example for the rest of the world to follow.
