i've got an interesting glitch happening with procmail (exim) and mutt,
and haven't figured it out: mutt's confused about which mboxes have new
mail....

based on various patterns found in incoming mail, i have my ~/.procmailrc
splitting it up to various mbox's in ~/Mail. when i run mutt and 'c'hange
from mbox to mbox, it defaults to the next mbox with new mail -- or it
should, but only sees three as ever having new mail:



        #  based on settings from [EMAIL PROTECTED] ('fish'.org')

        PATH=$HOME/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin

        MAILDIR=$HOME/Mail
        PROCMAILDIR=$HOME/.procmail
        LOGFILE=$PROCMAILDIR/procmail.log

        DEBIAN=$MAILDIR/debian
        DEFAULT=$MAILDIR/inbox

        :0:
        * ^(Sender|From):[EMAIL PROTECTED](internic|networksolutions)
        internic

        :0:
        * ^X-Loop: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        * ^X-Loop: debian-\/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
        $DEBIAN/$MATCH

        :0:
        * ^(Sender|From):.*@(agf(in(ance)?)?\.com)
        agf

        :0:
        * ^Subject:.*system check
        root

        :0:
        * ^(To|Envelope-to):[EMAIL PROTECTED]/.*
        webmaster-$MATCH

        :0:
        * ^To:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
        !rdt

        :0:
        * ^(Sender|From):.*@(pinncomp|speedex)
        trillich

        :0:
        * ^(Sender|From):.*(drw99@|tharp@|@.*serensoft)
        serensoft

mutt correctly knows when 'inbox', 'debian/user' and 'serensoft'
contain new mail, but not 'webmaster*', 'root', or any of the
others.
