3.8. Mailing lists

Usage: [un]lists address [ address ... ]

Mutt has a few nice features for handling mailing lists. In order to take advantage of them, you must specify which addresses belong to mailing lists.

Specify as much of the address as you need to to remove ambiguity. For example, if you've subscribed to the Mutt mailing list, you will receive mail addresssed to mutt-users@mutt.org. So, to tell Mutt that this is a mailing list, you could add ``lists mutt-users'' to your initialization file. If you also happen to get mail from someone whose address is mutt-users@example.com. you could use ``lists mutt-users@mutt.org'' to match only mail from the actual list.

The ``unlists'' command is to remove a token from the list of mailing-lists. Use ``unlists *'' to remove all tokens.
