I think this won't work because you change the value of the variable
only in a subshell (note that ` create a subshell) and thus mutt's
envirnoment doesn't see the change. But you might try somethign like:
macro index I "c=<Tab><Tab>`echo -n j>>$HOME/.jay;cat $HOME/.jay`"
Which uses a file to stor the 'j's. You'd have to clear this file before
starting mutt, though.
