I’m not sure now if you mean the new mail patch or the hanging socket one.  

Well for what it’s worth, here is (yet another) new mail patch, which I am 
using at home. It’s based off of c46dfbdb5eff from last week. I know you and 
David are working on this and I don’t want to step on any toes … but maybe 
my version is useful to you or someone else!

For reference I’m also enclosing my ‘new-mail’ command, which plays a sound, 
pops up a notification through zenity, and tells mutt to emit a terminal 
beep, and never notifies twice for the same message.

Cheers, Allen
