Re: use of folders
or you can try to put the following in your .muttrc
mailboxes ! `echo ~/Mail/*`
what that command does is to set every the file in that directory to be
a mailbox. In doing that, muttrc will check for new email for those
mailboxes and if you change mailbox (press c, or spacebar), mutt will
cycle through the mailboxes that have new email.
I would also recommand that you put the set folder line
set folder="~/Mail"
as early as possible as so that the line set record can be rewritten as
set record =sent
