Rmail GNU emacs 23.0 on Slackware 12.2.0 |
Here is an excerpt of my rmail summary buffer. The point is on
message number 7840.

Doing C-M-t RET -i.e. choosing default subject as the topic
returns: No previous message. More generally,
rmail-summary-by-topic is rather unreliable since less than 50%
of the time it will return correct results. I do not see how to
debug that.
I will try with edebug-defun on every part of the
rmail-summary-by-topic function.
