That's because the variable you want is called "record", not "sent".
(I know, that's not necessarily obvious...)

Hrm. Did you define the $folder variable BEFORE defining those
variables, or after? You need to define it FIRST. The + symbol there
is actually a reference to the $folder variable.
For example, with the following settings:
set folder=/tmp
set record="+/Sent"
set trash="+/Trash"
... your trash will be stored in /tmp/Trash. Buy the same logic, with
these settings:
set folder=$HOME
set record="+/Sent"
set trash="+/Trash"
... your trash will be stored in $HOME/Trash. However, with these
settings:
set record="+/Sent"
set trash="+/Trash"
set folder=/tmp
... your trash will be stored in /Trash. This is because at the time
that mutt read the "set trash" line, the $folder variable didn't
contain anything. Make sense?
