Hi all, i am new to mutt and am trying to configure it for the first time. I've tried setting up exim, getmail, procmail and mutt. When i send a mail, it reaches the destination alright, but i have problem receiving mails on my machine.
Right now, there are 582 messages in my INBOX. When i try to invoke getmail using 'G' (as configured in my .muttrc), it shows msg 1/582 (71943 bytes) delivered . . . msg 581/582 (3410 bytes) delivered msg 582/582 (3411 bytes) delivered But when i check in my inbox, there are only 417 messages. They are not getting updated beyond that. If i do 'ls ~/mail/inbox/cur | wc -l' that again shows 417 messages. Why are the other messages not being delivered?
