Mailboxes view, number of messages and IMAP



Hello,
before proceed to compile the latest develop version of mutt, maybe it's
worth to make a question:

I am currently using Mutt to access one IMAP mail,when I start mutt
-y(the problem presist also without this option though)
the mailboxes view is presented with the count of new messages presented
in every mailbox which I have listed within the mailboxes command.
The problem is that each number is static  (NOT updated) during my entire mutt
session: if I enter the index view of some mailbox and read some
messages then I press "y", the number is
not decreased.Otherwise if I receive some mails while I am watching the
mailboxes view the number is not increased.

Now: is it normal this behaviour or it's just my problem?I have
investigated the docs and there seems to be nodetails about that.
I am using as IMAP server the latest stable version of dovecot.
I attach some details of my relevant mutt config, thanks for eventual comments:

unset imap_passive
set imap_check_subscribed=no
set mail_check=20
set timeout=5
set followup_to

and my mutt -v:
