Gidday,
I'm running a Sarge server with Postfix/Procmail/Dovecot and Maildir
style mailboxes. I have a number of users that want to use a local
text-based mail reader from time to time. Pine is no longer an option,
so I've shifted to Mutt. I almost have it working, but can't figure out
one thing:
If I have an IMAP client somewhere that moves/deletes messages from the
INBOX, they're flagged as Deleted and appear in Mutt as such.
However when I go to quit Mutt and it prompts me to purge the deleted
messages, if I answer 'no', then it will always un-mark any messages I
have deleted in that session, and there seems to be a 50/50 chance it
will also un-mark messages deleted by other sessions.
One workaround appears to be to set maildir_trash=yes in /etc/Muttrc.
This purges the mailbox on program exit, but that can be dangerous if
someone accidentally deletes a message and quits Mutt.
any ideas?
thanks,
Greg
