The folder-hook matches. However the $folder/browser interaction is
not what you seem to expect. The first time, the browser starts in
$folder. The user can navigate across directories. Next times, the
browser conveniently starts where it was last left. IOW: $folder
initializes the browser once; Subsequent $folder changes do nothing.
What you want can be done via browser's <change-dir> function, in
macros, or pushed in folder-hooks. Several examples of this have been
posted here or in cmm. See archives.
But Mutt's browser lacks a sort of main root above all IMAP accounts
and local directories. You would go there when doing ".." from the root
of any IMAP account. It would list all other accounts, and would permit
natural navigation everywhere. It could be virtual, populated by some
muttrc configuration. Or be a real directory, containing symlinks to
imap://imap.example.com/ URLs.
Bye! Alain.
