69 Well this is embarrassing, but this was indeed the case. I had cleaned
\r
70 the Maildir from what I thought were leftover symlinks from some time
\r
71 long ago. Actually, I had a script that creates, with symlinks, a copy
\r
72 of my mailbox without the dots in the directory names for use with Mutt.
\r
73 I had left out parameter -T from 'ln' so my script also created weird
\r
74 symlinks at ~/Maildir, and thus resurrected the links I thought I
\r
75 cleaned up. And the links were indeed the problem.
\r
77 Everything is working now. Sorry and thanks!
