#3140: ignore old flag set by other mail clients

 Priority:  minor        |   Milestone:          
Component:  mutt         |     Version:          
 Keywords:  patch        |  
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
 I am occasionally using other mail clients to access my mailbox over IMAP.
 The IMAP server, however, adds to all new mails which have not been read
 the old flag (Status: O). I would prefer if all unread mails in mutt would
 all be marked as "New" and not some as "Old" and some as "New". I tried to
 get a patch included into dovecot but it was refused as it would violate
 the IMAP RFC.

 The attached patch let's mutt ignore that flag completely, with a new
 config option called "ignore_old_flag". All "Old" flagged mails are now
 still flagged as "New".
