No, he was saying to use the record variable, not the mbox variable,
("s/mbox/record/" is an (ed|sed|perl|ex|vi|probably other things)ism
for "on each line, replace the first instance of `mbox' with
`record'") but I don't think that's what you wanted--the record
variable is for storing outbound messages.  I could be wrong, though.

Can you change to the {bignachos.com}~/Mail/mbox mailbox?
That syntax looks a bit funky (mixing and matching local
and remote mailbox names) to me, and maybe mutt is choking on it.
Did you mean

{bignachos.com}mbox

or perhaps

{bignachos.com}INBOX.mbox

or some such?

If you can change to it, what do you have the move variable set to?
It sounds like you're expecting it to be set to ask-no.
