| Re: [PLUG] mutt question |
Just marking them read will still leave them on the server. If you just want to delete them couldn't you just do this from the command line mail When it comes up it usually shows the first 20 headers but you can do this at the command prompt d 1-28000 That would delete them. That is only if you don't have to keep them or archive them. John J.

There are 28,000+ emails that are not new but are unread (status is "O"). How do I mark thousands of emails as 'read'? I can tag them but don't remember the command to mark them all as read.
