I don't understand this one > Messages marked old stay marked old with me, I don't need no patch for > that ;) I think it depends on mark_old, with mark_old set, mutt marks unread new mails as old when leaving the mailbox, old messages stay old. With mark_old unset, new messages stay new (until read), and messages marked_old become new when you leave the mailbox (just try it). The patch changes the behaviour in respect with old messages and unset mark_old, the messages stay old (and new messages stay new). I like this behaviour, I mark messages I want to read later as old, and later I use an small perlscript to make them new, so mutt shows me in which folders I have to look. Nicolas
