Yes. :-) * means "any number (0 or more) of the character just before",
so using * alone doesn't make sense, as there is no character just
before it. * works as a wildcard for "anything" in some cases in the
Mutt parser, but those cases have been special-cased and they aren't
usually regexps actually.

Oops, what I meant is probably something like this:
folder-hook . set record='+read'
folder-hook =mutt set record='+read.mutt'
Although the folder hook(s) would depend on what folder names you have.
The idea is that the default stored folder is +read, and for the =mutt
folder it's +read.mutt... Hope this example illustrates to you how to
set it up, and it's what you'd like.
The example I gave before was a bit wrong, as you indeed wouldn't want
$record pointing to +read.mutt for *every* folder. :-)
