I have configured the gkrellm mailcheck mailcheck builtin to check ~/Mail/inbox (an MH mail folder) and also some subdirectories of this directory, which are also MH mail folders. The mailcheck plugin notices all new messages in the subfolders, bu never notices messages in ~/Mail/inbox Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Create an MH mail folder (I used sylpheed) 2.Create a subfolder in this MH mail folder which is an MH mail folder (again, I used sylpheed) 3.Set gkrellm to check both of these folders Actual Results: Gkrellm only detects new mail in the subfolder, not the higher level folder Expected Results: Gkrellm should detect mail in both folders Using gkrellm-2.2.5 (the latest unmasked x86 version in portage) emerge info: Portage 2.0.51.22-r2 (hardened/x86/2.6, gcc-3.3.5-20050130, glibc-2.3.5-r0, 2.6.11-hardened-r15 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.11-hardened-r15 i686 AMD Sempron(tm) 2400+ Gentoo Base System version 1.6.13 ccache version 2.3 [enabled] dev-lang/python: 2.3.5 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.11 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r6 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.5 sys-devel/binutils: 2.15.92.0.2-r10 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.18-r1 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O1 -march=athlon-xp -pipe -fforce-addr -m3dnow -msse -mfpmath=sse" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/X11/xkb /usr/share/config /usr/share/texmf/dvipdfm/config/ /usr/share/texmf/dvips/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/platex/config/ /usr/share/texmf/xdvi/ /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O1 -march=athlon-xp -pipe -fforce-addr -m3dnow -msse -mfpmath=sse" DISTDIR="/usr/local/src" FEATURES="autoconfig ccache distlocks nostrip sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://mirror.pacific.net.au/linux/Gentoo http://mirror.isp.net.au/ftp/pub/gentoo http://planetmirror.com/pub/gentoo http://gentoo.osuosl.org http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo" LANG="en_AU.UTF-8" LC_ALL="en_AU.UTF-8" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage//packages/x86/" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/var/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.au.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X acpi alsa bash-completion berkdb caps cdparanoia cdr cjk crypt cups curl dlloader doc dvd emacs esd fam flac foomaticdb gcj gd gdbm gif gmp gpm gtk gtk2 hardened imap imlib jpeg libwww maildir mbox mime motif ncurses nls nptl nptlonly offensive ogg oggvorbis opengl pam perl pic pie png ppds python readline samba sdl sockets ssl svga tcltk tcpd tetex tiff timidity truetype usb userlocales vorbis x86 xine xml2 xmms xv zlib userland_GNU kernel_linux elibc_glibc" Unset: ASFLAGS, CTARGET, LDFLAGS, LINGUAS
