I solved the problem, I guess, but I don't understand how...
I found an unset configuration variable named 'imap_cache' in the output of
'mutt -D'.
Unfortunately, this variable is not documented in mutt's manual. As soon as I
set it, the header cache worked as expected. (All files in the header_cache
directory and in the newly created imap_cache directory were created within
the last ten minutes, so the reactivation of the header cache is clearly
connected to the modification of imap_cache.)
Can anyone explain the semantics of the imap_cache variable, please?
Regards
Christoph
