  • macro trouble with tagged messages

    From downtime@21:1/5 to All on Sun Jun 10 03:37:35 2018
    So this worked on all tagged messages:

    macro index,pager S '<save-message>=INBOX.Junk<enter>'

    This works only on the currently highlighted message:

    macro index,pager S '<pipe-message>bogofilter -Ns<enter>\ <save-message>=INBOX.Junk<enter>'

    Why does the macro no longer work on all tagged messages when I add the <pipe-message> macro command. And how can I check that the piped command is doing its thing?

    Reading the documentation, I found 'pipe_split'. The description of its function
    sounded like it would fix my problem, but it didn't. Why would 'tag-prefix' stop
    working with '<pipe-message>'?
