Package: mutt Version: 1.5.18-6 Severity: important Hello Maintainer,
I am using courier-imap since 9 years now and had never problems using
mutt. But now, exactly since Etch, there is a problem.
As you know, if a mail arrive in a Maildir, it goes into a subfolder
named new/ (where the messages have no extension) and if you access the
folder with a mailclient, courier-imap move the file to cur/ and give an
extension of ":2," which normaly maks messages as "OLD".
Becuase I have set mutt to not to mark messages as old, mutt should
detect the messages as NEW, like "libnet-imap-simple-perl" does.
The weird thing is, that I have more then 68.000 unread messages in my
several 1000 folders and I do not know where so I have writen a perl
script which report me, WHERE I have new messages.
BUT now, mut does not more find the NEW messages.
This is definitively a bug, since "libnet-imap-simple-perl" has only
counted the messages without using the "GET" command.
Believe it even mailnotifier using imap reporting NEW messages correctly
but whenever I start such mailnotifier mut does not find a singel new
message.
THis bug should be marked grave, since with this crap it is not more
possibel to work correctly.
Also it ca be, that the bug was introduced with courier but this we have
to find out.
Please contact me if you need more infos.
Note: My server and workstations are 100% Lenny except my
IBM Laptop which is Sarge du to missing CDROM.
Thanks, Greetings and nice Day/Evening
