Hello, I can send mails correctly, but these messages are stored in cur folder, even
when they are news. Accordng to what I read, new mails should be saved in new
folder, should't them? But in my case new folder is always empty. Is this normal? Thanks in advance. Rgds, Miriam

Each file in *new* is a newly delivered mail message. ...

Files in *cur* are just like files in *new*. The big difference is that files in *cur* are no longer new mail: they have been seen by the user's mail-reading program.

Thus, the moment *anything* sees the message -- not necessarily when they have been *opened* -- then it moves to cur. To know if they've been opened for reading, you'd have to check the flags after the "," in the filename.
