I am trying to get mailto-mutt working in Firefox. I have it set in my
preferences. I use folder-hook to define sendmail, from and signature.
"folder-hook . " is used to define the default. However, none of these
are set. It does not send. There is no signature file set. The From line
is just my name on my local machine, not my mail address. It does not
appear to be obeying any folder-hook commands, as if there is no folder
defined. I got things to work by setting defaults directly in muttrc for
all three of these:-

set signature=~/.mutt/general.sig
set from=b_d...@bigpond.net.au
set sendmail="/usr/bin/msmtp -C /home/brian/.msmtprc.bp"

There must be a better way, that avoids setting each of these and a few
others that are less importan. I tried editing mailto-mutt to make the
"mutt_commands=" line read:-

mutt_commands="-f incoming"

hoping that this would make incoming the default folder, and thus get
"folder-hook . " to work, but that does work. Does anyone have an idea
how to get folder-hook to work in this context of mailto-mutt?

Cheers, Brian.
