provided by the alwayskeep boolean variable (
ON means y (yes) and OFF
means n (no)).
If you answer
y, all undeleted unread (new and old) messages are returned to
your incoming mailbox.
If you answer
n, all undeleted unread messages will be moved to the folder
defined by the receivedmail string variable.
If the
ask boolean variable is OFF
, the answers to the questions (which are not
displayed) are taken automatically from the values of the alwaysdelete,
alwaysstore, and alwayskeep boolean variables, respectively.
Q Quick quit. This is equivalent to executing the
q command with the ask boolean
variable set to
OFF.
r Reply to the sender of the current message. If the
autocopy boolean variable is
OFF, you are asked if the source message should be copied into the edit buffer. If it
is ON, the message is copied automatically. If copied in, all lines from the message
are preceded by the prefix string defined by the
prefix string variable. The To:
header is set to the sender of the message (or the address in the
Reply-To:
header, if one was set), the Subject: is set to the subject of the message, preceded
by Re:, and presented for you to edit. If the askcc boolean variable is ON
, you are
prompted for
Cc: recipients. Then, the editor defined by the editor string vari-
able is invoked. After you exit from your editor, the Send Menu is displayed.
s Save in folder (same as >). Save the current message or the set of tagged messages
to a folder. You are prompted for a file name with a default value. The default
value is a file in the maildir directory with the login name of the sender of the
first message in the set being saved. Any tags are cleared and the messages are
marked for deletion. The current message pointer is moved to the first undeleted
message after the last saved message.
t Tag toggle. Tag the current message for a later operation and move the current
message pointer to the next undeleted message. The operation can be one of |, C
,
p, and s.
Or, remove the tag from a tagged message. See also the Ctrl-T command.
T Tag toggle. Tag the current message for a later operation and remain at the current
message. The operation can be one of |, C, p, and s.

Ctrl-T Tag all messages containing the specified pattern. Or remove the tags from all
tagged messages.
If any messages are currently tagged, you are asked if the tags should be removed.
Answer
y to remove the old tags; answer n to keep them. In either case, you are
prompted for a string to match in either the From: or Subject: line of each mes-
sage. All messages that match the criterion are tagged. If you enter a null string
(carriage-return alone), no more messages are tagged.
u Undelete. Remove the deletion mark from the current message. See also d, Ctrl-
D, and Ctrl-U.
Ctrl-U Undelete. Remove any deletion mark from all messages that contain a specified
pattern in the
From: and Subject: header entries. See also d, Ctrl-D, and u.
v View attachments. Invoke the Attachment View Menu for the current message.
x Exit. Exit without changing the mailbox. If changes are pending, such as deletions,
you are asked if they can be abandoned. If you answer y, the changes are aban-
doned and the program terminates. If you answer n the exit is abandoned and you
return to the Message Menu command prompt.
X Exit immediately without changing the mailbox. All pending changes are aban-
doned.
