You're misusing the mailboxes command (though in a non-critical
fashion). The mailboxes command is NOT like a 'set' command. You do
not need to use an equals sign, and in fact you *should* not use an
equals sign (because, lets face it, you are not setting anything equal
to anything else). The only reason it's working is because '=' is a
synonym for '+' in mutt (aka $folder). So your setup there is
equivalent to this:
mailboxes $folder $folder/inbox
mailboxes $folder $folder/a
mailboxes $folder $folder/b
Read the documentation for the mailboxes command; you can achieve the
same thing in a single line:
mailboxes +/inbox +/a +/b

Yes.
> How can I avoid having the 1st entry, which might be confusing.
You can't; it's in there because of $folder.
