beginning and end of a line.

A list of characters enclosed by ``['' and ``]'' matches any single character

matches any character n\bno\bot\bt in the list. For example, the regular expression

A character class is only valid in a regular expression inside the brackets of
a character list. Note that the brackets in these class names are part of the

symbolic names, and must be included in addition to the brackets delimiting the
bracket list. For example, [\b[[\b[:\b:d\bdi\big\bgi\bit\bt:\b:]\b]]\b] is equivalent to [\b[0\b0-\b-9\b9]\b].
The preceding item is matched at least _\bn times, but no more than _\bm

most simple possibility is to logically AND several patterns by stringing them
together:

2006. The second pattern matches all dates between October 18th, 2004 and
October 4th 2004 (2 weeks before 18/10/2004), while the third pattern matches
all dates 1 day around December 28th, 2004 (i.e. Dec 27th, 28th and 29th).
date ranges between a fixed number of units and the current date. How this
works can be seen in the following example:

Sometimes it is desirable to perform an operation on a group of messages all at

Once you have tagged the desired messages, you can use the ``tag-prefix'' oper-
ator, which is the ``;'' (semicolon) key by default. When the ``tag-prefix''
operator is used, the n\bne\bex\bxt\bt operation will be applied to all tagged messages if

When configuring Mutt-ng for MIME, there are two extra types of configuration
files which Mutt-ng uses. One is the mime.types file, which contains the map-
ping of file extensions to IANA MIME types. The other is the mailcap file,
There are three areas/menus in Mutt-ng which deal with MIME, they are the pager
(while viewing a message), the attachment menu and the compose menu.

The '-' denotes that Mutt-ng will delete the file after sending (or postponing,
or canceling) the message. It can be toggled with the toggle-unlink command
(default: u). The next field is the MIME content-type, and can be changed with
these if the appropriate entry is found in the mime.types file. It also recog-
nises other major mime types, such as the chemical type that is widely used in
the molecular modelling community to pass molecular data in various forms to
