I'm experiencing a similar problem. My mailboxes count fluctuates as I
browse through my mailboxes. Here's a snippit from my .muttrc:
set status_format="%v: %f%r [%M/%m] [N=%n,*=%t,post=%p,boxes=%b] %?V?{%V}?"
mailboxes ! =ancientbiblehistory =bahai \
=bugmaster =classics =cybalist \
=dreams =duplicates =ex_in_italy \
=gnu-screen =magnagraecia =moop \
=mutt =paml =php-cvs =procmail =python \
=spam =vim =vim-dev =vim-multibyte \
=xs
When I fire up mutt, the status starts out as 'boxes=8', but as I browse
through one or two, it will jump down to 'boxes=2'! I'm still trying to
figure out exactly how to reproduce this. It may not be mutt at all,
rather my crappy shell account. But perhaps it has something to do w/
mutt not updating any file timestamps.
I'm using the cvs version by the way.
