I want to be able to kill a lame thread based on Subject, perhaps
something like ``Subject: Make more money''.  I'm fairly new to MH,
and am using the Emacs interface to it.

It looks like I can do something like M-s (mh-search), enter a
From/To/Date/Subject pattern to scan for, which will then create a
search sequence. Presumably I could delete this sequence.

But this multi-step process is is very time-consuming (lots of steps)
and error-prone (I have to retype the subject).

There must be a way of doing a kill-thread like in GNUS or VM.
Any ideas?

Thanks!


PS: I realize I can do

	rmm `pick -subj "Lame or Flame"`

    but I have to do this from UNIX, rather than with a single Emacs
    keystroke, and it also is error-prone having to re-enter the subjects.
