"Mailbox is unchanged"



Hi.

A problem seems to have started recently: Mutt seems to think
that my mailbox is always unchanged.

I have around 100 read emails in my spool (and growing) and
when pressing '$' to sync, mutt just says "Mailbox is unchanged".

I use maildir. Mail is delivered to a local spool (~/mail/spool)
and then saved into maildirs organized by month/year
(~/mail/2009/04_inbox).
