37 Hi mcc,
38
39 What are you using for a pattern?
40
41 If I want to find pineapple anywhere in the message then I press 'T' and
42 then '~B pineapple'
43
44 There are lots of other '~' selectors. I use ~f quite often to find
45 mail from a specific address.
46
47 If you want space you need to escape them or enclose the whole pattern
48 in quotes.
