True, I use fetchmail for download my email, it put the email in the new fo=
lder
without 'info'.

I think is better if new keeps the email where it is, only updates the data=
base,
and when you remove the unread tag move the message from folder to folder. =

mail readers (at least mutt) handles different the emails on the new folder=
 than
the ones with no "S" flag con cur folder.
