I'm using maildir format, so based on some patterns I move mails to
different files below ~/Mail.

My procmailrc:

PMDIR=$HOME/.procmail
LOGFILE=$PMDIR/maillog
MAILDIR=$HOME/Mail
SHELL=/bin/bash

... and of course a lot of filters to move mails to individual files like:

:0:
* ^TO_mutt-users at mutt.org
L-mutt-users

> How are you observing the "folders with new mail" count?

In the top status bar, there is this:

[N=7,*=3,new=5]

Afaik, this indicates that:

- there are 7 unread mails in my current folder
- I have selected 3 mails in current folder
- there are 5 additional folders containing each at least one unread mail

By pressing change-folder, mutt normally suggest next folder with unread
mails.

While deleting or moving one of the mails in current folder to different
one, the "new=5" indicator jumps to "new=0" and mutt no longer suggests next
folder when pressing change-folder command.

Ok, I will try that and report back.


Thanks for your support,
