I remember having the same kind of problem in the beginning, but I
can't remember how I solved it. I *think* it was down to having a bad
syntax in my search terms, so that the search didn't catch anything.
Perhaps also because I hadn't set the search areas properly. 
Here's what I have in my .mairixrc:

    base=~/Mail
    maildir=*...
    omit=spam
    omit=trash
    omit=mairix
    database=~/.mutt/mairix-db
    mfolder=mairix

And the macros in .muttrc: 

    macro index,pager \em "<shell-escape>mairix " "Run a Mairix search"
    macro index,pager \ef "<change-folder-readonly>=mairix\n" "Search results"

On that note: can someone tell me if there is a way to combine the two
into one? I would like to go automatically to the mairix folder once
the search is over, instead of having to go there manually. Is that
possible?
