Subject: [sup-talk] Need help to use/customize sup

Hi all,
Essentially I want to know:
- How can I mark all marked/tagged mails/threads as read.
- Can I tell sup, to not show any mail/thread in inbox, if mail has no inbox
label.

This is the way I operate Thunderbird and I wanted to keep my workflow
same for both.

Thanks and Regards,
Manish

One more things is that when I press @ to refresh the inbox view,
I see many other threads which do not have inbox label in it. Do I
have to take any extra action on all those messages? I believe they
are all unread messages? Is this the case?
Thanks,
Manish

Tag threads with 't', press ';' for apply, press 'N' to toggle from 
unread to read.

If you have a search that includes both read and unread threads, you can 
select only the unread threads by including "is:unread" in your query.

You can use tag and apply with other commands too, like delete and label.

That's what it does already. However, in the inbox view, the "inbox" 
label is not shown. It IS shown in other views, like the search results 
view.

If you don't want a thread to reappear in the inbox when a new message 
arrives, kill it with '&' instead of archiving it with 'a'.

This is a bug (I think) in recent version. Initially, these threads are 
not displayed because of sup's 20 message result limit. Re-running the 
query with @ pulls in all threads.

I could be wrong about the above: I'm not looking at the code right now.

All the messages have the inbox label. As I said in my other message, 
you just don't see it in the inbox view. Open the thread and you will 
see inbox in the list of labels.

Hi Chris,
I have some comments inline.

is:unread is very good trick. Thanks.
> You can use tag and apply with other commands too, like delete and label.
I am not sure if I am missing something here, but I could not delete 
labels from all
tagged threads. I could remove label from single though.

Just so that I understand it, kill will remove the thread from appearing 
from inbox, but
in my search results it will show up?

Thanks and Regards,
Manish

Also,
Is there anything using which I can load all messages? I have to do M to 
load
all messages until it says no messages found.

Thanks,
Manish

depending on the version of sup you are running, "!!" should do it.
Hit ctrl-g to stop the operation (as getting all threads in some
circumstances is going to hurt if you've got a large mailbox)

I hope I not missing something obvious, but I am seeing messages
killed again in my inbox. It does have killed label.

By the way, thanks for all the help. I am now using sup for all my
mail communication. It does crash once in a while, mostly when I do some
quick operation of loading messages and opening them and most of the 
issues seems to be while accessing the index.

Thanks and Regards,
