 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."
