Searching for Articles ​

M-s M-s ​

Search through all subsequent (raw) articles for a regexp (gnus-summary-search-article-forward).

M-s M-r ​

Search through all previous (raw) articles for a regexp (gnus-summary-search-article-backward).

M-S ​

Repeat the previous search forwards (gnus-summary-repeat-search-article-forward).

M-R ​

Repeat the previous search backwards (gnus-summary-repeat-search-article-backward).

& ​

This command will prompt you for a header, a regular expression to match on this field, and a command to be executed if the match is made (gnus-summary-execute-command). If the header is an empty string, the match is done on the entire article. If given a prefix, search backward instead.

For instance, & RET some.*string RET # will put the process mark on all articles that have heads or bodies that match ‘some.*string’.

M-& ​

Perform any operation on all articles that have been marked with the process mark (gnus-summary-universal-argument).
