Limit to Current Thread

Limit to Current Thread#

Introduction#

This feature adds a new way of using the Limit Command. The <limit-current-thread> function restricts the view to just the current thread. Setting the limit (the l key) to “all” will restore the full email list.

Subject: Limited view of a single thread

Description: The NeoMutt index after invoking <limit-current-thread>, showing only the messages belonging to one thread (with tree-style indentation) while all other messages are hidden. The status bar should indicate that a limit is active.

Highlights: How the index shows only the focused thread with its reply structure, the “limited” indicator in the status bar, and the reduced message count compared to the full mailbox.

Functions#

Limit-current-thread adds the following function to NeoMutt. By default, it is not bound to a key.
