The first declaration in my .muttrc was:

[...]
set ascii_chars=yes
set auto_tag=yes
set beep=no
set collapse_unread=yes
set editor="vim -c 'set fo=tcrq' -c 'set tw=76'"
set save_empty=no
set mbox="~/Mail/mbox"
set move=yes
set pager_context=4
set pager_index_lines=10
set pager_stop
set sort=threads        # sorting the mails in threads
set sort_alias=alias
set sort_aux=date       # sorting the threads
set sort_browser=alpha
mailboxes \
=anacron \
=calendar \
=changetrack \
=daily_output \
=ddclient \
=monthly_output \
=security \
=systemcheck \
=weekly_output 
#mailboxes `echo $HOME/Mail/*`
# Choosing all mailboxes in a directory
[...]

Then I changed it to:

[...]
set ascii_chars=yes
set auto_tag=yes
set beep=no
set collapse_unread=yes
set editor="vim -c 'set fo=tcrq' -c 'set tw=76'"
set save_empty=no
set mbox="~/Mail/mbox"
set move=yes
set pager_context=4
set pager_index_lines=10
set pager_stop
set sort=threads        # sorting the mails in threads
set sort_alias=alias
set sort_aux=date       # sorting the threads
set sort_browser=alpha
#mailboxes \
#=anacron \
#=calendar \
#=changetrack \
#=daily_output \
#=ddclient \
#=monthly_output \
#=security \
#=systemcheck \
#=weekly_output 
mailboxes `echo $HOME/Mail/*`
# Choosing all mailboxes in a directory
[...]

And the second setup worked. The first setup only worked up to mailbox
"calendar".
