The new behavior was very strange at the beginning, but I'm starting
to get used to it. However I miss the fact that new messages could be
seen in the index without having to recenter it with <current-middle>.
If Mutt could have an option so that when the last message is visible
in the index, then the last message is taken as an anchor (instead of
the first visible message) when new messages are added to the mailbox.
Note that I sort my mailboxes with:
set sort=threads
set sort_aux=last-date
so that new messages appear near the bottom.
