Re: Balsa 1.4.1 libmutt bug + patch

[Julian M Catchen <julian catchen org>]

Hmm,

I did see the mh_sequences stuff in the code, except all of my 
.mh_sequences files are of 0 length. Balsa 1.4.1 does not appear to 
actually write the files.  I looked at my old mH directories and I have 
created new mH directories from within balsa, and in neither case were the 
files written.  Plus applicatinos like asmail still read status headers 
from within the mails.
