I've completely overridden the default keybindings and invoke mutt using a wrapper script with the -n and -F options and source a file where all my functions are bound to the keys I like. Once I've read the mailbox (mbox format) it's considered read; whether or not there remains unread mail in the file until more mail is sorted into it by procmail - then it becomes an "unread mailbox" again.

As you've written some nice tools already, it sounds like you know what you're doing so stick with it i'd say. Plus, for me, I find it great fun and interesting learning about these things. I've learned loads by getting stuck in and engrossed in it all. Some people, however, have been there and done that and simply just can't be bothered with it anymore and/or would rather spend their time on something else. Jamie

e cwm on OpenBSD as it's there as part of the system and I really like it. I prefer anything that allows me to use the keyboard all the time; having to reach out for a mouse is PITA these days :-) I still have my iTerm2 installed, perhaps I didn't give it enough of a chance.

f this. If that is the case, use that instead to copy the mail over to the new ~/Maildir. You should be ok from there on. Bear in mind this my own approach, there may be better options and plenty of people on this list will no doubt have better suggestions. Hopefully they'll have time to improve mine for you or come up with something totally different and more efficient. This sort of thing is easily achieved in a shell script, if your shell scripting knowledge is ok. Best wishes, Jamie

.' as seperators for directory's. As you have '.'s in you mailbox names this could be confusing things. You can easily create the Maildirs manually: mkdir -p ~/Maildir/{cur,new,tmp} and use the same command syntax to create all the directories you need. Then from within mutt, using its original mbox set up, tag and copy all mail from each folder to the respective Maildirs now located in ~/Maildir/whatever. mutt will see the new directories as Maildirs and store the mail correctly (i believe). Someone might have to confirm that. Jamie
