Hi,
I have the following little problem: I use balsa with a maildir
local repository. When getting mail from a pop account, I use
the "procmail option" in balsa to feed procmail which will put
the new mails in the right maildir folder (for example
INBOX/new). What is strange is that the mail does not appears
directly: I supposed that balsa cannot see that a new mail
arrived. So I re-hit the "get mail" button to force balsa to
check locally all the "/new" directories but balsa seems to
check only the pop account and not the local folder. The only
way is to wait (some time after, sometimes the mails appears)
or I have to shutdown balsa and relaunch it and the new mails
are detected.
Is there any way to have my mail appearing in balsa when
procmail drop them in the "new/" directories ?
Balsa creates a new message file in the "tmp/" directory, and
then moves it to "new/" or "cur/" according to the "unread" flag,
and expects other agents to do the same. So it detects changes by
checking the mod-time of "tmp/". Can you arrange for procmail to
do the same, or otherwise "touch" "tmp/"? Balsa will then detect
the new mail at the next mailbox check.
