I've been looking into this over the past few days. I've been meaning to
switch to Mutt for months (from Netscape), but never had the time to
figure out how to transfer the message status flags.
The problem is that Netscape uses the 'X-Mozilla-Status:' and
'X-Mozilla-Status2:' headers to store message status in 16 bit and 32
bit hex numbers respectively. Mutt (and Pine, etc.) store message status
in 'Status:' and 'X-Status:', which is different to Netscape.
I'm going to write a short script to convert Netscape status headers
into Mutt status headers today, and then I can finally move over to Mutt
after all these months. I don't think this script will allow you to do
what you are wanting to, in terms of synching the status of the
messages, unless you run it each time you swap between Mutt and
Netscape, which could be tedious.
Bye,
