i have this in my .muttrc:

set spoolfile="$HOME/mail/IN/"
mailboxes ! "/var/qmail/alias/Maildir/" "/tmp/dubletten" "/tmp/spam"

... and whenever i type 'c', it reliably tells me the next of these folders
containing new mail.  i have my timeouts set to one minute, so after one
minute idleing and on any status-changing command, it beeps and tells me
where to find new mail.  no mistakes, works always (version 1.0.1).

i don't use biff or xbiff, don't have to.

i'd like to know where our setups differ.  is it nfs?
