Please restate that question if this does not help you along.
procmail creates mailboxes on the fly if they are not present. If none
of your rules matched one of its delivery targets, then it uses $DEFAULT
as your final target.
mailboxes are not deleted by either procmail or mutt.
mutt reads its configuration file upon start-up, perhaps if a mailbox
did not exist when it started it will not check for updates as it
usually does?
