What I have in the .muttrc I use when working with the IMAP server
is:-
set folder={mailandnews.co.uk}
set [EMAIL PROTECTED]
set record={mailandnews.co.uk}outbox
set spoolfile={mailandnews.co.uk}inbox
This means it's *very* difficult to do anything with the local folders
at the same time. OK, so I could change the 'set folder=' to a local
directory but then I lose the ability to navigate the IMAP folders.
I need to be able to navigate the remote IMAP folders to find a
message and then save to a local folder, this is well nigh impossible
if the local folder is anywhere except in the 'current' directory
level.
Executing a "set folder=xxxx" while in mutt seems to do nothing at
all.
