:) I tried IMAPSTATUS and I'm no big fan of it, I guess it's a matter of 
:) preference.

It was not my favorite either when I started using it. It took me a couple 
of days to get accostumed to it, but in the end I did, and now I 
appreciate it, for its detailed report.

:) Thanks for your detailed explanation. It does make more sense now.
:) 
:) I think the solution for me is to use "stay-open-folders" as I'm using 
:) the newmail-fifo-path for notifications for new mail which currently 
:) works just for my main inbox. This way I will get notified about all 
:) the inboxes and the Recent status is no longer that important to me. 
:) But at least I now understand pine's quirky recent vs new vs unseen 
:) labeling.

Good you found something that works for you.
