Yes, that was my initial attempt. It works if I use 
    
    folder-hook `/path/to/script.sh` ...

I have tried

    set my_muttdir=$HOME/.mutt
    folder-hook `$my_muttdir/script.sh` ...

Here, Mutt doesn't seem to expand $my_muttdir before handing the command over
to the shell. Is there a trick to do that?
