I don't use the IMAP support in mutt, but for local folders I have the
following lines in various places in my ~/.muttrc file:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
mailboxes "!" \
=lists/announcements
mailboxes =lists/debian-devel
mailboxes =lists/debian-python
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The "mailboxes" command is used to tell mutt what mailboxes you have.
If you press <Tab> in the folder selection view it will toggle between
listing the files in the current directory and the mailboxes specified
with this command.
( "!" is your INBOX )
Check 'man muttrc' or the web site for all the options and more
details (though terse).
( You can ask here also, I don't think anyone will bite your head off
;-) )
