I love mutt, especially since I have to go through tons of emails every day. The color-coding and sorting features are very helpful. I also like to check my mail via ssh from home (opening the same mailbox multiple times, effectively). I've been suspecting some deleted mails though... Yesterday, my fears were confirmed when my mailbox suddenly showed that my mails for the last 15 days were gone! I thought I would quit Mutt and restart it. Then, I get the 'writing mailbox...' as it quit... Oh, that's not a good sign. And, sure enough, my mail for the last 2 weeks is permanently gone. :'( I'm going to start opening my mailbox read-only from now on, but I was curious if someone else has experienced this? I consider this a very serious bug! I do a lot of purchasing, so I've lost my electronic receipts for the last 2 weeks, and the tape drive on that box died earlier this week which further complicates things... doh! Thanks for any info!
