Currently the code just does this (in | mbox_sync_mailbox): | | /* Check to make sure that the file hasn't changed on disk */ | if ((i = mbox_check_mailbox (ctx, index_hint)) == M_NEW_MAIL || i == M_REOPEN | { | /* new mail arrived, or mailbox reopened */ | need_sort = i; | rc = i; | goto bail; | }
I know too little of mutt development to implement the improvement. I can imagine setting some flag that will result in a recursive call of mbox_sync_mailbox if there are any mails marked for deletion. But, again, I have no clue what the side effects may be ;) | > To get what you want, STOP doing what isn't working. | > -Dennis Weaver | | We could, but where's the fun of fixing it?
