Hi
The partition where my MBox-files lie is the only one i have to mount without 'noatime'. As i don't know when relatime comes for the rest of the filesystems (ocfs2 wouldn't be my choice for a filesystem, only to satisfy mutt a bit better) i thought about: 'Why doesn't mutt set the atime explicitly?' So i did a short test: stat <mbox-file> <getting new mail, which is stored by procmail> stat <mbox-file> touch -a -t <whatever> <mbox-file> stat <mbox-file> clearly shows that procmail only updates the mtime, and "touch -a" only updates the atime. So i guess i must be missing something big time, as this can't be that easy. So where am i wrong? P.S. Don't kill me for using Thunderbird/Icedove, i use mutt only for reading mail. -- Real Programmers consider "what you see is what you get" to be just as bad a concept in Text Editors as it is in women. No, the Real Programmer wants a "you asked for it, you got it" text editor -- complicated, cryptic, powerful, unforgiving, dangerous.
