mailboxes `find ~/mail -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 1 \( -type d -not -name
'localhost' -not -name '.*' -printf "+'%f' " \) , \( -type f -name
'*_archive.gz' -printf "+'%f' " \)`
Fairly convoluted, but automatically updates the mailboxes definition
[1]. Pretty quick to run, too.
What it does is prints just the name of every directory not named
'localhost', not having a name beginning with a dot, and the name of
every file ending in '_archive.gz' -- each with a + prepended.
[1] From reading Mutt manual section 3.13, I'm under the impression that
my mailboxes command is executed only upon mutt startup, or at any other
time that my muttrc is sourced. Adding appropriate beep commands to my
mailboxes command seems to confirm.
