Hello, I'm in the process of migrating all my old mail to the maildir format and restructuring my mail workflow in the process. Doing so, I ran into the following problem.
I would like to know which of my mail folders have unread (new) messages inside, and, AFAIU, that's what the mailboxes statement is for. I followed the instructions at http://wiki.mutt.org/%3FMuttFaq/Maildir and most everything seems to be working fine, except mutt won't report mailboxes with unread messages (buffy-list doesn't return anything and the value of %b is 0). What could the problem be? I have mail_check and timeout set to sane values. One question that comes up is: is there a way to print the mailboxes variable to make sure it contains the desired folders? Is there a way, in general, to echo internal mutt variables? Cheers, S.M. --
