mutt does not properly detect new messages
Hi,
I usually run 'mutt -Z' to read new messages mutt has recieved.
But this does not work any more:
1) i run 'mutt -Z'
-> 1st mailbox with new mail opens
2) mark all new messages as read and update ('$')
-> no messages has the 'N' flag
3) quit ('q') and run 'mutt -Z' again
-> same mailbox appears
So far I have found out, that a simple 'touch mailbox'
makes mutt to advance to the next mailbox with new mail.
This is a bit odd.
