Hi all,

First thanks to all for suggesting me procmail recipes for the problem I
had a few days ago with my double mail, but I use maildrop so I just
took 15 minutes and went through it by hand :-)

Anyway, my question of the day is if there is a better way to detect new
mail in the folder view. According to the manual new mail is detected by
checking the access time of the folder, but I also have a mailchecker
applet running so this is not good. I would also like to detect not only
new mail, but also 'old' new mail (marked with O instead of N). This
doesn't seem to be possible by using %N in the folder_format. I use
Maildir to store my mail in. Would there be a way to use an external
program to check for new mail? I could write my own script to go through
all 'new' directories. 

Thanks.

cheers,

roel
