Typing '?' at this point results in an immediate segfault
(v1.5.13'). What gives? With 'c' it works though. Is there a way of
only having to specify part of the folder name? I'm using the TAB key
all the time in bash.
My .muttrc has now grown to this:
--------------------
set folder=imap://server/
set imap_user="xx"
set imap_pass="xx"
mailboxes =INBOX /var/mail/dh
ignore *
unignore from date subject to cc
--------------------
When I start mutt, it shows me the stuff in the local spool. As soon
as I do some folder-oriented stuff it dives into the IMAP server, but
how can I now access my local hierarchy under ~/Mail?
In principle I'd like to keep all locally (POP3) receiced mail in the
~/Mail hierarchy and the other stuff on the IMAP server.

fetchmal just works. It (or ratherm, exim) puts everything
into /var/mail/dh.

That's the kind of thing I normally enjoy, which is why I thought mutt
could be something for me.
