I use slrnpull to fetch several mailing list archives from gmane. The directories contain a bunch of loose files, not organized like a Maildir. But using mutt 1.5.18, I could just open the resulting folders in mutt and everything showed up like it was a mailbox.
However, since I switched to mutt 1.5.20, now the folders open up empty. Reverting back to mutt 1.5.18 shows all the articles are still there and visible to the older mutt. I assumed I had left out some compile switch when upgrading, or the compile-time defaults had changed. However, mutt -v on my new and old versions of mutt give the same list of compile-time switches. Also, my distro's packaged version of mutt 1.5.20 (distro is Arch Linux) can't see the slrnpull'd files either. Anyone have ideas how I can get the earlier behavior with the current mutt? -- Jim Pryor j...@jimpryor.net
