Suppose you have the following set of mailboxes in ~/Mail:
foobar
foo
bar
and the following folder-hooks:
folder-hook foobar '...'
folder-hook foo '...'
folder-hook bar '...
The second folder hook will match both foo and foobar. In order to
prevent this match, you need to use an anchor ($) in the regular
expression to match the end of the word right after foo:
folder-hook foo$ '...'
