I tried Cygwin mutt 1.3.24 with maildirs and it did not seem to like the ones generated by maildrop. If it did, this would "solve" (OK workaround) any locking problems. Has anyone had success with mutt and maildirs? > Nevertheless, I'll give your patches a look on my PC. :) Thanks a lot. :) You very are welcome. > Will you submit them to the maintainers? Possibly the first one, but most likely not the second (it's a hack). Actually, I would not go upstream until I have things working much better than they are now.
