What I use is:
( yet another attempt at self promotion!
http://www.liv.ac.uk/~svwright/mutt/index.html#d101002 )
unset collapse_unread
# I want (slack) collapsed threading in general.
folder-hook "." unset strict_threads
folder-hook "." push "<collapse-all>"
# Except for my Inbox.
folder-hook "!" set strict_threads
folder-hook "!" push "<collapse-all>"
You might also want something like this
set index_format="%4C %Z %{%b %d} %-15.15L %?M?(#%03M)&(%4l)? %s"
It is left as an exercise for the reader to discover what this does...
Also you can jump to new messages with the <TAB> key (well, with the
default bindings anyway).
