Subject: Procmail and folders

I recently started using procmail to filter my mailing list mail into
folders. When I view these folder from the L command in pine it sure would
be nice to see if the folders had new mail or a last modified date so
that I didn't have to open each one to find out. Any ideas?
Thanks Guy.

    I have something which might help, although I'm not sure if it's
exactly what you're looking for.  It does not work within Pine as such 
-- it consists of a shell script and a perl script which drives it --
although you can suspend Pine and run the shell script.  It shows how
many (or zero, if that) items are in each folder.  Browse my WWW home
page, and you can get information and the scripts for free.
