One thing I should mention - if you are insatiably curious, and concerned
that you might 'miss something', you can replace the command 'j' to
junk an article with :=:j to display the title of the deleted article and

I.e. /^From: bhv@/h:=:j will select articles authored by me, display
the subject line of said articles, and then 'junk' them.
