Hi,

I mapped “>” to “next-unread-mailbox”, but it does not work as expected.

Assume that I have two mailboxes, “alpha” and “beta”.

If I am in mailbox “alpha” and a new mail arrives in “beta”, I can press “>”
and jump to mailbox “beta”. That's what I expect.

However, when ten new mails arrive in mailbox “beta”, I press “>” and jump to
mailbox “beta”. I then read two of them and go back to “alpha”. Then there are
still eight unread mails in “beta”, but pressing “>” shows “No mailboxes have
new mail” and it does not open mailbox “beta”.

“.” shows: “New mail in =.beta”, however
“>” shows: “No mailboxes have new mail”

Two things I don't understand:

∙ The error message “No mailboxes have new mail” is wrong. The function is
  called “next-unread-mailbox”, it should jump to a mailbox containing *unread*,
  not *new* mail. That means, the error message should be “No mailboxes have
  unread mail”.
∙ There is new *and* unread mail in the mailbox (it shows the symbol “N” in
  the index view) that means it should jump to the mailbox in any case.

I assume that I misunderstand how this function works. Maybe someone can
enlighten me?

Marco
