#3197: annoying error when <last-entry> is used in an empty mailbox

 Priority:  minor     |   Milestone:

 When the <last-entry> (or <first-entry>) function is used in an empty
 mailbox (or a mailbox where all messages are hidden by limiting), mutt
 beeps and prints the error message "No entries".

 This is VERY annoying for users who prefer to begin viewing the last entry
 of each newly-opened mailbox.  For example, if a user has the following
 folder hook

  folder-hook . 'push <last-entry>'

 and their inbox happens to be empty, then mutt will beep at them every
 time the inbox is opened, every time the mailbox is synced to remove
 hidden messages that are marked for deletion, and so on...
