Re: mutt not via fink



Hi All,

I've been using mutt on osx for a few months now.  I've tried the
version in fink (1.4i I think), and I'm currently using 1.5.6i that I
downloaded off mutt.org and compiled (painlessly, I should note).

The only problem I've noticed is that mutt seems to get confused
about which of my mailboxes have new mail.  I am using MBOX mailboxes
that receive mail from fetchmail/procmail.  When a mailbox gets new
mail, mutt notices this fine, but after I read all the new mail in
that mailbox and switch to another mailbox, mutt alerts me that there
is new mail in the OLD mailbox, and it still shows up with a 'N' in
the mailboxes view.

Could this be a quirk with the HFS+ filesystem and access time
records?  Anyone else run into this problem, know what might be
causing it or how I might be able to fix it?

Thanks!

~Aaron
