If you had three mailboxes, say mail1 mail2 and mail3, wouldn't that
piece of command line wizardry give the following output:

mail1mail2mail3

Instead of

mail1
mail2
mail3

?  I wonder whether this is why Mutt is getting confused. :)  Although
the script is there doubtless to serve as a timesaver if and when you add
new mailboxes, try inserting the filenames manually until you fix it.
That way, you *will* be notified of new mail. :)

Best regards :)
