That's odd. I ran a test before where I had my main mailbox open. I email myself, run fetchmail, and i watch the mutt window with mail_check set to 1. I waited to see if mutt would pick up on the new message and automatically say new mail and show the message in the index. So I have to manually go into the window and hit up or down in the index, and then the message shows. I want the message to show without me having to go up or down in the index. Any idea?
