When "mh-rmail" starts up it does an "inc" only. If there is no mail in your system drop box, then "inc" will find nothing, and you'll get an +inbox buffer with nothing in it. All you have to do is M-r (ESC r) to re-"scan" your inbox. From this point on, your mh-e +inbox buffer is synchronized with your MH +inbox folder. If you thereafter "inc" your new mail using "i" from the mh-e +inbox folder, you'll be fine.
