Either use sort in a pipe with find or use the shell (which sorts also
the filenames) 
# begin mailboxes
#!/bin/bash
cd $HOME/Mail

shopt -s extglob
echo -n mailboxes
echo -n " !"
for i in !(Sent|caughtspam)
do
  echo -n " +$i"
done
echo
#end mailboxes

and "source ~/.mutt/mailboxes|" in my muttrc.
