I am using mutt 1.1.1 and was just looking at some mail in an IMAP4
folder.
One section of the index window looks like this:-
7 D Nov 17 laurent.duperva ( 0) Food for thought
8 D Nov 21 Martin Forssén ( 0) TkRat 2.0b5 available
-> 9 Nov 21 sam rosenfeld ( 0) Having problems getting it going
10 O Nov 22 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ( 0) gpg usage
11 O Nov 22 Brian Servis ( 0) Still getting segfault problems on sta
I have looked at and deleted messages 7 and 8, I just looked at
message 9. If I hit return now the message opens but shows only the
header, the body is empty. The first time I open any of the 'O'
messages they display OK, if I re-open them I just get the header and
no body. This only seems to happen with messages marked 'O'.
Even stranger, while I was playing with the above problem I deleted a
longish (two screen pages) message so it was marked 'D'. I then moved
the cursor back to that message (i.e. I moved the pointer up using 'K'),
this caused mutt to re-download the headers (and messages?). I re-opened
the message by hitting return and only the second page of the message
was available! It was as if hitting 'D' had only deleted the displayed
page of the message and the undisplayed remainder was downloaded from
the IMAP server again. It also removed the 'D' flag from the message,
is this how things are expected to work, it's not how mutt works with
local folders/messages.
I'm using colour so it's remotely possible that the invisible messages
are black on black but I don't think it's that, I've not noticed
anything odd happening with local mail.
