I don't know if this is related or not, but I use an "epplet" for
Enlightenment that watches my mail file... Tells me how many new vs total
messages I have. It seems to work fine... It will show new messages before
Mutt does for a couple of reasons:
1) it watches /var/mail/whatever
2) it updates every few seconds (mutt only updates every minute or two)
3) I use (mailbox format noted in # 1). Is that "mailbox" vs mbox or maildir
???
Are you by chance using mutt's "pop mail" functions ?? Can't mutt do similar
to what fetchmail does as far as retreiving, deleting, etc mail ??
