Greetings. I have configured Mutt to use MH-style mailboxes rather than the default mbox-style. It's taken a bit of searching to get as far as I have, but there are still some things impairing Mutt's full functionality. I'll spell them out. Monitoring subscribed mailboxes ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I have all the mailboxes I want mutt to keep an eye on set out in the proper way, e.g. 'mailboxes =mutt-users =inbox'. However, when messages are delivered, Mutt will indicate (and beep_new) their arrival only for the mailbox whose index I'm currently in. It also does not mark messages as new ("N"), neither in the current index nor in ones I change to. Deleting doesn't delete ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Deleting messages and syncing a mailbox does vanish them from the index, but they seem to remain in the MH directory as comma-prefaced filenames, e.g. ,430. I guess this all has to do with updating MH sequences, which are dealt with in each directory in a file called .mh_sequences. I have procmail piping messages to mailboxes through rcvstore from the nmh package, e.g.: :0 : /home/dle/.rcvstore$LOCKEXT | /usr/lib/nmh/rcvstore +inbox So, what can I do (if anything) to fix these problems?
