 Nope. When parsing:
 
    folder-hook ^foobar$ ...
 
 mutt correctly extracts ^foobar$ as text. Afterwards, it tries to expand 
 the path. As '^' is for the current folder, it's inserted. (During 
 startup there's no 'current folder').
 
 Afterwards the string used as regex just is: 'foobar$'.
 
    bye, Rocco
