If not, I'd say the best bet is to Yes, although its a bit messy. I also have folders under $HOME/Mail/ which are archives only (i.e. not mentioned in .mailfilter, but created with the "save" or "copy" from mutt.) which I'm guessing shouldn't be under the IMAP directory structure? > > For mutt: > > Mutt and IMAP (maintained by Brendan Cully) > > http://mutt.sourceforge.net/imap/ > > > I've never had a problem with mutt and IMAP (using it now).

Would this be ok: # Mailboxes which get new mail. mailboxes `echo $HOME/.Maildir/*` When mail arrives into one of the mailboxes i.e. will mutt say "New mail in $HOME/.Maildir/IN-debian-user" then if you press c then return will mutt 'open' $HOME/.Maildir/IN-debian-user and the new message is flagged as new just as it does now? -- Chris. ====== Don't forget to check that your /etc/apt/sources.lst entries point to etch and not testing, otherwise you may end up with a broken system once etch goes stable. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
