I shouldn't think so...
My .muttrc contains the line
# if open and idle for this long, time out and check for new mail
set timeout=60

I get the entire list, with folders containing new mail marked as
N. Mutt only knows about folders you specify with "mailboxes", ie
mailboxes /var/spool/mail/ailbhe
If anyone does know a way of displaying only folders with new mail
when one presses "c", I'd love to hear about it. I asked a few days
ago, and no-one seems to know.
