Mutt only checks for new mail when it runs its input processing
loop, which it does normally only when the user is typing.  It also
runs this loop when an input timer times out, but the default
timeout is 600 seconds or 10 minutes.  To change this timeout value
to check more often, use something like

    set timeout=5
