I am occasionally using other mail clients to access my mailbox over IMAP.
The IMAP server, however, adds to all new mails which have not been read
the old flag (Status: O). I would prefer if all unread mails in mutt would
all be marked as "New" and not some as "Old" and some as "New". I tried to
get a patch included into dovecot but it was refused as it would violate
the IMAP RFC.
The attached patch let's mutt ignore that flag completely, with a new
config option called "ignore_old_flag". All "Old" flagged mails are now
still flagged as "New".
