For a mailbox I do not own, mutt -y does not always show the
presence of new mail.  In particular, if .muttrc includes

        mailboxes =foo

and I have (group) read/write access to foo but do not own it,
mutt -y apparently accesses foo.  As a result the "N" flag does
not appear (apparently a race condition -- sometimes it shows
the first time, but never on a second call).

A bug?  Any workarounds?  I'm running 0.95i under Linux 2.0.34.
