Hi all,

  I've searched for an answer for this question on the archives, but I got no
  luck on that.  So, if this question has already been answered before, please
  point me to elsewhere I could check the answer. :)

  Ok, I've been using Mutt for over a year now, and this problem never occured
  before 3 months ago..  I've experienced Mutt acting strangely when cycling
  between the maiboxes listed in the configuration file.  What happens is that
  when I receive mails that are saved to two (or more) different mailboxes by
  maildrop (I tried re-switching to procmail, and same happens), read the
  mails from the first then move to the next one, Mutt readily says I have new
  mail in the previous mailbox, even thought the fetcher (fetchmail) has
  already finished downloading all my mails.

  Then, if I move to the previous mailbox, it says I have new mail on the
  previous (the second) one.  Ok, I see it is playing with me and is making
  fun of me. :)

  But is there any way for me to get rid of this?  I started using Mutt when
  running Linux, and that never happened.  Now with FreeBSD, it didn't
  happened for the first 1 and half year, then suddenly that started.  I
  switched from the old mbox to the Maildir format, and no luck.

  The only workaround I could see for this, is to quit Mutt, open ALL
  mailboxes with an editor, then write them to disk, quit the editor and come
  back to Mutt.  But even so, if I do that before reading all mails, when I
  return to Mutt, it does the same thing..

  I used to configure Mutt with "mailboxes ! `echo $HOME/Mail/*`", then tried
  listing all mailboxes by hand, and the same error, always.  Any ideas?


Thank you all very much in advance,
.cseg
