Absolutely! As you probably already saw from my other mail, I suggested this just before the New Year. Two of us wanting this probably means we have quorum ;-) Any suggestions for the link format? I can't think of a reason why the following would not work well: [[mairix:-t fc:client@example.com d:20080101-][from or cc client in 2008]] Currently the choice of whether to use '-t' is controlled by a global custom variable, but I prefer the per-link flexibility. In contrast, it would be more helpful to include '-a' interactively, e.g. with a prefix argument. Your other ideas sound good too, although I suspect it is unlikely that anyone else will manage to find the time to code them for you, so please consider hacking some elisp yourself ;-)
