This means that mutt subsequently doesn't consider these emails as "new" any more but rather as "old but unread", which is not what I want.
Mutt is broken. The status of a message is not determined whether it's in "new" or "cur", but by the status flags of an individual message file. The "new" directory is part of the maildir specification for delivering mail to a mailbox, and nothing more.
courier-imap itself still considers the emails as "new", as can be seen when accessing the same folder via imap through mutt. Then they will all be "new".
Correct. That's because courier-imap is reporting the status of an individual message properly, based on the status of the message flags, and not based on which directory the message file is.
I am quite certain that courier-imap is the culprit that is moving the message since it's happening no matter which imap-client I am using,
Correct. That's what any mail client does for properly processing maildirs.
I've checked the config files a few times but can't seem to find a setting to stop that from happening.
There's nothing to stop. That's what should happen in maildirs.
What I want is for mail to stay "new" (not just as shown via the imap
What you want is not a part of the maildir specification, unfortunately. http://www.courier-mta.org/maildir.html # READING MAIL FROM MAILDIRS # # … ## Look for new messages in the new subdirectory. Rename new/filename, as # cur/filename:2,info.
As soon as a mail client opens a maildir, it moves all messages from new to cur. End of story.
Mutt's implementation of maildirs is broken.
