I wanted to save a message I received. So I pressed s and was asked where I wanted to save the message. I chose to create a new folder called TurboTax. My question is what do I need to do for this new folder to appear in my sidebar?

In my .muttrc file I have:

set imap_check_subscribed

imap_check_subscribed will cause folders marked as "subscribed" on the IMAP server to be added to the "mailboxes" list automatically. That list is used to display folders in the sidebar, among other things.

It sounds like "TurboTax" is not marked as subscribed on the IMAP server.

set imap_list_subscribed

Enabling this option will cause Mutt to *only* list subscribed folders when you browse folders (e.g., using <change-folder> and then '?'). You may need to then type 'T' (<toggle-subscribed>) to show the new TurboTax folder.

Once you see the TurboTax folder, you can type 's' (<subscribe>) to mark the folder as subscribed on the IMAP server.
