The new message.

I suspect you probably are just missing some syntax. For example,
mutt's mailboxes take full paths, not just names that are relative to
some other setting. So, for example, if procmail is saving messages to
$HOME/testing then you need to tell mutt:
mailboxes $HOME/testing
Otherwise, if you just have "mailboxes testing", mutt will look for a
file named "testing" in whatever the current directory is.
