This is very easy - use the builtin shortcuts. Just as ! refers to the 
$spoolfile, and > refers to the $mbox, < refers to $record and both = 
and + refer to $folder, so too do both !! and - refer to the previous 
mailbox. So you can do this:

     macro index B '<change-folder>!!<enter>'

... or you can just do it by hand - change folders and tell it to 
change to !!.

Note that this is the same syntax that can be used in most shells with 
the cd command:

     cd -

... will take you back to the previous folder you were in.
