I'm having problems getting mutt and a python script to play nicely together with an mbox format mailbox. I get different symptoms according to whether mutt is accessing the mailbox directly or via NFS. If I open the mbox file with mutt and have mutt displaying the index of messages and then the

Mbox locking, how to do it in a way that will work with mutt?
