I tried it just now with version 1.6.2-1, and 'j' (or 'k', I forget which) correctly showed new mail. With version 1.5.21-5ubuntu2.2 on Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS, 'j' or 'k' or '.' doesn't find new mail (even though it's there), and '$' reports "Mailbox is unchanged". If I read a message and then return to the Index page then mutt finds the new mail. (I admit that Ubuntu is not exactly Debian; I'm just offering this for comparison.) So I think you can close the bug. Thanks for looking into this. --Paul Vojta, vojta at math dot berkeley dot edu
