I also wanted to use my arrow keys to navigate through folders.
(like I did in pine.) what I have now is:
macro index <left> "<change-folder>?"
this binds the <left> key to get you to the change-folder menu, f you are in
the message index. (I think you need the mailboxes command to tell mutt which
folders you have)
also, I did:
bind pager <left> exit
this will get me from the pager back to the index.
