-- David Woodfall d...@dawoodfall.net [2013-02-05 11:24:58 +]: Have set mine the same and I still get no info about folders, just the names, no modified date/time or new mail notification. If you're using the mailboxes command then I 'think' you do not need to have $imap_check_subscribed set; this variable does the same thing. Have you got that set at the moment? You could also unset $mail_check_recent - it will notify you if new mail is in the mailbox whether you have visited the mailbox or not. You may now need to look into your Dovecot configuration. There are some options you might consider using/changing as I eluded to in an earlier message. For example, in /etc/dovecot/conf.d/15-lda.conf there is an option to set the delivery agent to automatically subscribe to new mailboxes when it creates them. But I imagine you already have all of the mailboxes created. It's just another option to think about. BTW, when you say you get no new mail notification, what is it exactly you are expecting? mutt is set to check mailboxes for new mail every 5 seconds, and then a little message appears at the bottom to notify you - is this what you are referring to?

Hi David, I'm not absolutely clear what your setup is but seems like you may be using a similar setup to mine - reading mail on the server which receives mail and also using imap to remotely read the mail on that server, however, in case you are using a similar set up to me perhaps if I describe it, it might help you. I generally read my mail on the mx host server which also has Dovecot imap setup. When I'm reading mail using mutt on the server, I don't bother using imap to the localhost, the imap server is purely for when I'm reading mail using mutt on another machine. So, I have to setup my mailboxes for mutt on the server in a slightly different way because Dovecot LDA creates my mailboxes with a leading '.' in ~/.maildir. This appears to me to be how your mailboxes are created? I've also set up the imap server to automatically allow/make MUA's subscribe to the mailboxes, so I don't need to put $check_imap_subscribed in my muttrc file. So I've set the $MAIL environment variable to ~/.maildir in my shell's configuration file ( OpenBSD's version of ksh ), then I've set $folder in my muttrc as $MAIL: set folder=$MAIL set mask=. ... ... and my mailboxes are set up like so: mailboxes ! mailboxes =.foo mailboxes =.bar ... Note, this is only when using mutt with direct Maildir++ access on the server When using imap, I use pretty much the normal method for accessing imap folders: set tunnel=ssh -q -C kontrol '/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap' set folder=imaps://kontrol.kode5.net/ set spoolfile=+inbox set header_cache=~/.header_cache ... Obviously, you needn't use the tunnel method. I find it helps, though, when I'm accessing mail from another computer in my LAN as there's not much point in letting mutt find the server through the internet and setting $folder to imaps://hostname or using the internal ip makes mutt complain about the ssl cert which of course has been created using the FQDN.

You want the `mailboxes' support:

Also see $imap_check_subscribed

imap support?

Mine works fine with just this:
mailboxes =Inbox
... however, I'm also using offlineimap, fwiw. My config doesn't

Mine works fine with just this:
mailboxes =Inbox
... however, I'm also using offlineimap, fwiw. My config doesn't
define imap-check-subscribed.
I'm guessing that Mutt is reading downloaded headers then?
(0) infidel /home/keeling_ grep -i header .muttrc
set header_cache=~/mutt/cache/headers
set edit_headers
fwiw. Why would anyone not want to? Mutt's just a program. I'm the
one doing the reading here. :-)

You want the `mailboxes' support: http://www.mutt.org/doc/devel/manual.html#mailboxes Also see $imap_check_subscribed http://dev.mutt.org/doc/manual.html#imap-check-subscribed Thanks, but I already use both these features. With the mailboxes command, do I need to now add the mailbox names with a leading '.' for imap support? Dave

Command/Macro to show new messages via IMAP?
When I switched to IMAP I noticed sadly that Mutt no longer shows new mails from outside a folder. Actually it's IMAP + Maildir. Is there some way of doing this? Even a command/macro I could run to show new mail without having to actually go into each folder to check? Thanks for any ideas. -- Studioware http://www.studioware.org
