Re: Maildir is not visible

This is what I have problem with -- why there are no messages in the 
target folder even according to my Java program?

find <dirname> -type f lists all files (not directories) in all 
subdirectories of <dirname>. So that's not the problem. Of course, I 
checked this with mutt as well (I used find only because it is is easier 
to show in the message).

That's interesting. I will get back to you later when I will check this.
