I mean Menu->File->Check Mail to retrieve the mail from $HOME/.maildir into 
the Inbox. I was wondering what the "Local Folders" was for and it appears to 
be another maildir directory so I reconfigured procmail with 
"DEFAULT=$HOME/.local/share/local-mail/" in /etc/procmailrc. That populates 
the "Local Folders" directory but nothing appears in the Inbox and still no 
filtering.

Will this be fixed in the next version? If so, I will hang on!
