Mutt has a $timeout variable that tells how often it will stop waiting
for a keypress from you, while in the index screen, and then go check
for mail. So if it's set to, say, 30.. then Mutt will wait 30 seconds
for you to press a key, and then go check new mail, and update the
index. If you press a key sooner than that, then Mutt will notice the
mail sooner, but it should always notice eventually, unless $timeout is
set to 0.
