-Mutt:Sorting Mail Like a Boss

-Mutt is a relatively difficult mail client to learn. However, as most if not
-all mutt users will tell you, once you've got the hang of it, no other mail
-client can come close to matching the efficiency and speed of command line mail
-(or any thing else in command line for the most part). I recently started
-using mutt myself and just can't get over how efficient it is once you've got
-your configuration sorted out. Yesterday I easily cleaned out 800 emails in
-about five minutes using some very simple search terms (and no I didn't just
-delete randomly 800 emails). Unlike the title of this post implies though, I
-am not amazing with mutt, but what I do know, however, can get me around very
-quickly. Here's what I use nearly every day.
-
-
-[[tags]]
-=== Tags
-
-Mutt supports this neat thing called tagging. It's basically the command line
-equivelant of multiselect (ctrl+click or shift+click).
-
-**To tag a message**, move the cursor to it and hit the _t_ key.
-
-**To tag a group of emails based on a pattern**, for example "Change Requests",
-hit capital __T__. You will see at the bottom of your mutt window __Tag
-messages matching:__. Type your tag term, hit enter, and you should see several
-highlighted messages now.
-
-Finally, **to peform an action on all tagged messages**, preceed the command
-letter (s for save/move, d for delete, N for new, etc) with a semicolon ( ; ).
-For instance, do delete all tagged messages, type __;d__.
-
-
-[[limit-filter]]
-=== Limit (Filter)
-
-In mutt, you can do this really cool (though not novel in the slightest) thing
-wherein you filter the displayed messages by a regular expression. You don't
-have to use a regular expression of course, but never the less it can be done.
-
-**To limit/filter the currently displayed emails**, head over to a directory
-you want to get a better filtered look at and press the _l_ key. You will see
-at the bottom of your mutt window ''Limit to messages matching: ''. Type
-whatever you want to limit to.
-
-Note here though that limit by default only searches mail meta data unless
-otherwise specified. This makes searches go much faster since most of the time
-you're just cleaning up your inbox by subject, receivers, and date. If you do
-want to search the body of your emails, preceed your search term with __~B__,
-and mutt will go the extra mile and search email bodies for you.
