I don't know if it helps you, but I use '<change-folder>\r', which can be bound as a macro like so: .mutt/options:macro pager g "<change-folder>\r" .mutt/options:macro index , "<change-folder>?<tab>" .mutt/options:macro index g "<change-folder>\r" For me, that will typically let me cycle through to the next mailbox defined in $mailboxes that has new mail, in the order they're defined there. You can also see the value of $change_folder_next. /w
