Actually, it's the following:
# mailboxes which get mail
#
# my spool box and my testing box
mailboxes ! # my mailspool
mailboxes =IN.testing # test messages
mailboxes =IN.umbc
mailboxes =IN.security
mailboxes =IN.32bitsonline
mailboxes =IN.crypto
mailboxes =IN.fetchmail
mailboxes =IN.fight-censorship
mailboxes =IN.fringe
mailboxes =IN.goucher
mailboxes =IN.linux
mailboxes =IN.local
mailboxes =IN.misc
mailboxes =IN.music
mailboxes =IN.mutt
mailboxes =IN.nym
mailboxes =IN.spki
mailboxes =IN.reef
mailboxes =IN.y2k
mailboxes =IN.fixme # mail to my goucher account
mailboxes =IN.crap # and spam and other crap mail (presumably)
And all the other notifications work, but <space> doesn't cycle through.
It does have a correct Incoming number on the status bar, and it will
occasionally pipe up that "IN.linux has new mail". But even so, <space>
won't cycle through the boxes.
And this did used to work, but then I upgraded my box and all the
software on it, and it's stopped working. :-(
Thanks for the suggestion,
Jon
