"spelling"

it makes a good difference when you use it on the shell.

  mutt -f +folder
  mutt -f =folder

with the ZShell the equal sign is a meta character
where "=program" will evaluate to "which program";
*very* useful - but not with mutt in this case.

However, you can use command completion to...
wait, this is the mutt mailing list, right?  ;-)

glad to oblige..

well, how about this then:
  $ cd ~/Mail; mutt
now you can save your mails *without*
any '+' or '+' - just type in the name!

why ad any code to mutt for
this simply startup method?
