Subject: [Q] search pattern WITHIN mail

From: Urs Kradolfer <[email-masked]>

Hello everybody,
the command W searches for a string in the mail-header (if in the 
index-menu).
Question: Is there a command to search for a string WITHIN the body of 
all mails?
'elm' has the slash (/) as 'pine' has the W command. I did not find anything
in 'pine' as the command slash-slash (//) in 'elm', searching for a string
anywhere in a mail.
Can anybody help me?
Best regards,
                Urs

	Only in Pine 3.90, not in 3.89, though. In 3.90, do "; t a <string>" 
and Pine will highlight all messages containing <string>.

You already have the answer. Try the good ol' W for that also. Hope this 
helps.
