no "New Mail in" notification when in pager



Hi

I noticed that when one is in the pager viewing a message and new mail arrives
(Maildir), no "New mail in ..." notification is displayed. Also, buffy-list
does only show the status before the new mail. However, in the browser and
index, it works as expected: Automatic notification after at most $timeout +
$mail_check seconds.

This was tested with a minimal muttrc

-------------------------------------------------
set mbox_type=Maildir
set folder=~/Maildir
set spoolfile=~/Maildir
set record=+sent
set postponed=+postponed
set timeout=10
set mail_check=5

mailboxes `find ~/Maildir/ -type d -name cur -printf '%h '`

color normal    default     default        
ignore *
unignore from date subject to cc x-mailing-list posted-to list-post reply-to 
x-spam-status

macro index,pager c "<change-folder>?<toggle-mailboxes>" \
"open a different folder"

bind  browser n check-new
-------------------------------------------------

and a stock Debian version (1.5.17+20080114 (2008-01-14)) as well as with a
version compiled from the hg repo (hg id: 85654735d27e (HEAD) tip). Is this
known/intended? Do others see this? Please let me know if you need more
information (mutt -v output etc.) Many Thanks.
