Mutt does not agree with you on what new mail is ;)
You are actually confusing "new" mail with "unread" mail. If you want
mutt to tell you when you have "unread" mail, that is slightly more
difficult.
What I've done is set up mbox hooks to move all of my read mail into
special "old" folders. This way, whenever I see a mail folder with a
nonzero size, I know there is unread (aka "new") mail in it.

It's case sensitive. Make sure you are copying the addresses exactly
(ie, mutt-users and MUTT-USERS is not the same thing).
