Do you set spoolfile before the mailboxes directives?
"Note: the filenames in the mailboxes command are resolved when the
command is executed, so if these names contain shortcut characters (such
as ``='' and ``!''), any variable definition that affect these
characters (like $folder and $spoolfile) should be executed before the
mailboxes command."
