????? Procmail doesn't come into it at all!
I have a system with an IMAP server running on it where I store
'interesting' mail from all the accounts where I run mutt (home, work
and two shell login accounts). The mail stays on the IMAP server as
the whole point is that I can see it and refer to it from anyhwhere.
The "DON'T DELETE THIS MESSAGE ...." message doesn't show up when
using mutt to look at mail on a remote IMAP server like this.
Sometimes however I use mutt on the system where the IMAP server is
running, using mutt this way *does* show the unwanted message. This
is when I want to use the 'limit' command to hide the message. In
this case mutt is viewing the mailboxes directly, not using the IMAP
server.
