My host (Kapsi ry internet society) changed the servers, after which I have not been able to read my emails, etc by mutt and host's webmail: all mailboxes seems to be empty. I have done all proposed changes in mutt configs, but the problem has persisted now 3 weeks. I can read no emails by mutt anymore. Everything looks blank. My host another email frontend also shows all mailbox blank. The host says that some my mailbox still receives mails. However, I cannot confirm it because I cannot view them. I just need to read one email which has pdf attachment.
My host says the following but there is no $HOME/Maildir, only $HOME/mail and $HOME/Mail
According to procmail, your messages go to ~/Maildir directory.
Use these settings in `$HOME/.muttrc at https://dev.mutt.org/trac/wiki/MuttGuide/UseIMAP
Test viewing emails at https://webmail.host.com
My $HOME/.muttrc
