Well, this isn't strictly an "in mutt" solution, but I don't use $mailboxes to monitor email. Instead my procmail recipe runs a small shell script when delivering to particular folders, and that script writes a line to a file I'm monitoring in a small always-open xterm citing folder, author and subject.
