Comment(by k):
I'm watching my postponed folder not so much on purpose as because,
referring to the [http://www.elho.net/mutt/maildir/ Mutt & Maildir Mini-
HOWTO], I set:
{{{
mailboxes `echo -n "+ "; find ~/Maildir -maxdepth 1 -type d -name ".*"
-printf "+'%f' "`
}}}
Following pdmef's suggestion of not watching my postponed folder, I added:
{{{
unmailboxes +'.Drafts'
}}}
This helps in some way since %b isn't affected by new email in my
postponed folder (i.e. Drafts), but as pdmef said, this makes it
harder to navigate to that folder.
Doesn't it seem inconsistent that when composing and sending an email,
when it goes into the record folder it isn't flagged new whereas composing
and postponing a message gets an email flagged as new? I can see how
flagging postponed messages new can act as a reminder than one has
postponed messages, but using the 'new' flag for this doesn't seem quite
right.
By the way, the last line of my original message should read: "Can mutt be
configured so ''postponed'' emails are not marked as new?"
