Well, I misunderstood the problem completely.. I didn't check the manual on
procmailrc, but rather assumed that you were creating a directory which you
carbon copied your mail.. (why/how/duh is still a mystery, I just woke up)
but.. I use procmail to filter my mailing lists into seperate boxes, and
have the following line in my ~/.muttrc:
mailboxes +mutt-users +postfix-users +bugtraq
And whenever unread mail gets sorted into those boxes, mutt notifies me,
and when I press `?' in the open mailbox dialog, it shows me an `N' flag
next to the boxes just as if it does when I have unread mail.
My question is this, have you checked wether or not mutt shows you an `N'
flag on new messages in your hticker boxes ? Cause if it don't, it won't
notify you of that mail being unread neither. I'm not sure what makes it
mark messages as read.. Think it has something to do with the `access time'
flags on files.. Shoot me if I'm wrong..
