To repeat it once more: Such a ``feature'' is just much too expensive. Mutt would have to parse all folders everytime. Imagine how long that takes if you have a few thousand mails per folder... Not talking about locking during the checks or slow NFS connections... If you're really interested in the pure number, why not use a shell script to count it for you? This is the more powerfull solution because you could also write a short script which configures the $mailbox variable to contain only folders with unread mail. Your choice... Cheers, Rocco
