#3007: cache doesn't set imap flags correctly mutt-1.5.17 When using the header cache, most of the time the messages that were read in some mailbox get the wrong flags. For example, one reads about a dozen new messages. They are all marked as read. Mailbox is synced ($). Exit the mailbox and reenter: the same messages are marked as new again, or sometimes old.
In fact, I'm not 100% sure it's due to the header cache code: I basically can't use mutt + imap without this cache, so I didn't give it a try in that way. But it happens for me and my colleagues. I do have some external patches applied: - nntp - xterm-title - compressed folders If no-one else has seen this behaviour, I'm willing to give it a try without these patches. -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.mutt.org/trac/ticket/3007>
