That's weird.

Either "mutt -y" (from the command line) or
c(hange-folder), <tab>, <tab>
or
c(change-folder), "?", <tab>

Pressing tab when in the file/directory browser brings up the incoming
mailboxes view.

Nope, not that I know of.  When you press c for change-folder, there's
a default prompt which is the first folder defined in your mailboxes
that has new mail.  So c<enter> should take you to the next new
message...  But you can't unfortunately macro it into a single key.

No, that's not possible.  You can set your $folder and then use the
+ and = shortcuts, but it works only for a single path (ie. it isn't
much of a help with multiple IMAP folders).  Folder aliasing besides
just the $folder functionality would be rather useful with IMAP I
guess.

That's a very good idea. :-)  After that, go read the manual. :-)
