Or perhaps his "mailboxes" are not mailboxes at all, or are in the wrong
format somehow?
Try creating a mailbox by saving a mail using mutt (it will ask - "create
mailbox y/n". Or if there are no mails, use something like
$ echo 'test'|mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Of course, mutt might not see your mailboxes - so put something like
mailboxes `echo $HOME/mail/*` in your .muttrc and see.
