Thank you, that works nice. Can I make mutt chose one group by default?
This is good enough for me. But if I can only make it come up with one
of the folders by default (i.e. "in.misc") by default...

Abselutely fantastic. It is so easy when you can have experts telling
you these things :) I came up with some magic of my own to show all the
month-separated groups as time goes by:
mailboxes `echo +gllug-*`
Everything seems so easy once you get over that first hill :)

A good advice, but running is so much fun :)
