Steve, How do you tell mutt to copy a message to trash. Would you do something like: C =Trash Maybe this could be assigned to the d key. I'd also like to assign something similar to ctrl+d to remove an entire thread. Cleaning out the "all maiil" folder may be quite labor intensive. We'd want to delete all conveersations without an assigned label. This would take quite a while using the web interface. Perhaps there are some python bindings for gmail which could be used. I don't really mind that mutt removes the messages from the inbox if we had a utility to clean out the "all mail" folder once in a while.
