I was under the impression, that the time/date of the file was not
changed by Exim, when appending to that file.
As I just noticed, this is not true, the file *is* "touched". I
mis-configured Mutt so it did not compare the date/time of the file
with it's internally saved timestamp, so Mutt could not indicate,
whether a mailbox had new mails.
Sorry, my mistake!
>Does mutt recognize that there are new messages in exim-user?
It now does :-) sorry, I'm still a newbie and had misconfigured Mutt.
>Wwwhat? Do you know how MTA and MUAs work?
Not yet, but I'm still learning, thanks for your help.
Kind regards
