Hi, I use mutt with Maildir format and what happens is that it sometimes fails to display N flag next to a folder with new mail inside. Folder timestamp is updated correctly. That's how I can tell that it has new mail inside without opening it, but it's very annoying and hard on the eyes to go through the folder list and check if any timestamp was updated.
The issue doesn't apply to any particular folder and doesn't seem to happen in any consistent way. To refresh folder list I just press TAB two times as mutt doesn't seem to refresh it automatically, but that's not a big deal. The real issue is that after refreshing it I can't be sure if I see N flags on all folders with new mail inside. Any comments/suggestions would be highly appreciated. My mutt version: Mutt 1.5.21 (2010-09-15) I also attached my muttrc. -- Warmest Regards, Giedrius Rekasius
