That would be a solution but I'd have to constantly maintain the list of
mailboxes in my .muttrc, as I access the account from several mail
clients (twig, mutt, Outlook Express, Mozilla Mail, etc.) and regularly
modify the (un)susbscribed status of certain imap folders from any
client. 

What I am looking for is a way for mutt to thow me directly into the
imap browser with the *server-defined* list of subscribed folders
displayed.

That would work, still, I can't get INBOX displayed along (in the same
hierarchy as) other subscribed folders. Probably a courier thing?
Mozilla Mail (RC2) has that problem as well, Outlook works fine.

Thanks,
