Hi! I've just changed from mbox spool files to Maildir spools. Since then, mutt 1.3.27i does not reliably detect new mail in the directories.
In my muttrc, I've got this: mailboxes ! `find $HOME/Maildir/ -type d -maxdepth 1 \( -name Mailer_Mails -o -name Daemon_Mails -o -name DUPES \)` `find $HOME/Maildir/ -type d ! -name cur ! -name tmp ! -name new -path '*net-attach*'` `find $HOME/Maildir/ -type d ! -name cur ! -name tmp ! -name new -path '*ML*' | sort` `find $HOME/Maildir/ -type d ! -name cur ! -name tmp ! -name new ! -path '*ML*' ! -name Mailer_Mails ! -name Daemon_Mails ! -name DUPES ! -path '*net-attach*' | sort` This transforms to the list at the end of the message - at least I suppose it does, because I neither get an error message and running this on the shell I get a correct output. Well, any ideas about why mutt does not detect new messages in the folders?
