True, I use fetchmail for download my email, it put the email in the new folder
without 'info'.

I think is better if new keeps the email where it is, only updates the database,
and when you remove the unread tag move the message from folder to folder. Some 
mail readers (at least mutt) handles different the emails on the new folder than
the ones with no "S" flag con cur folder.

That will be nice.
