Put all your mail somewhere like a ~/mail directory; then tell procmail
(or an exim filter) to put inbox mail in ~/mail/inbox, and your other
folders are stored as files in ~/mail. You can subdivide folders into
groups by using subdirectories.

'c' in mutt changes from one folder to another. Have a look at the
'mailboxes' .muttrc command to designate several folders as ones in
which you expect to receive incoming mail, then hitting 'c' will select
the next folder with new mail by default.
