Using mutt
with Gmail I "check for e-mail updates" sometimes through the $ binding (sync-mailbox), sometimes just by using c (change folder) and just supplying =
(defaults to MAILBOX) as the IMAP folder path to change to.
Is there a better (in particular: faster) way of doing the same? A solution would be something that is more direct than "pretending to switch folders", as I do, for example. Also something that does not "miss" some updates, as $ seems to do at times (perhaps $ is not meant to check for e-mails at all but just to expunge messages marked as deleted, etc?)

settings in mutt?mutt
updates the folder status after every keyboard input; either keep hitting$
or bind a specific key of your choice... Personally, I'm happy with letting mutt handle it.$
