Yes, of course. If I could reproduce the problem myself I wouldn't be
putting you through this. You might try using a directory as your
header cache. Please also send a -d2 trace of a session where the
header cache should be used, but isn't. There will be some clues in
there about why mutt is ignoring the cache. I suspect it's an issue
with UIDNEXT/UIDVALIDITY values.
