Sounds liek you want to catch messages with just the same Subject as a
thread you have posted on, even if they no longer quote you....
How about dynamic rulset generation?
In your main RC file:
INCLUDERC /path/to/subjectsrcfile
:0 c
* ^Newsgroups:.*comp\.mail\.mutt
* ^From_youraddress(_at_)yourdomain(_dot_)tld
* ^Subject: (Re. |\[mailinglistsubjectag\] )*\/......*
| echo -e "\n:0\n* ^Subject:.*$MATCH\nmutt-threadsiamin/\n" >> subjectsrcfile
The use of '.....' prevents blank/short subject lines from triggering....
For this simple form, I auto-generated rules that just deliver matching
mail to a new folder. You could also get fancy and 'formail' the message
before dropping it into the existing folder, etc, etc.
By doing the 'INCLUDERC' first, you *should* prevent multiple redundant
triggers of the 'create a rule' rule when you add more posts to a thread.
But your first posting will go to your regular mutt-users/ folder.
Of course, you would still have to frequently manually edit the file to
remove old rules/subjects.... Don't let that rc file grow to large!
Hope this helps!
