highlight folders with new mails in mutt
Hello, I am trying to highlight those folders in mutt which have unread mails in them by an "N". I have added "%N" to my folder-format-string and it looks like mutt reserves space for it but it never shows up. I have read that tools that check for new mails like biff can spoil this setting but I removed biff and the "N" still does not show up. Does anybody know a way to solve this? Thanks, Phil
