Thank Erik, and suggestion to Jeff,
Before the bug is fixed, I suggest going back to mutt 1.5.18.
I found it has an extra benefit - it opens mailbox much faster than
1.5.20. I don't know why, but you can benchmark it. (I have some
mailboxes of size 1-200MB. The time-saving for them is obvious.)
best regards,
charlie
