Look for "mailboxes" After you make the entries in .muttrc with mailboxes, you can type 'c' to change mailboxes and you will get the name of the next mailbox in the list that has mail. If use the TAB key after 'c' you will get a list of the mailboxes and an 'N' will be there for those which have new mail. Anita
