Well, I'm not quite out of the woods. Although mutt starts off in my
Inbox (using mutt -f ~/Mail) and it shows everything correctly, when
I change folder, to say view all my mailboxes, then I can't get back
into my Inbox. Inbox isn't listed anywhere that I can see, and the
only way seems to be to restart mutt -f ~/Mail.
If I hit 'c' to change folder it just lists all my folders minus
Inbox. I guess I could make an Inbox folder and set that in procmail
to be default. Is that the proper way? I expect I would need to point
dovecot at it too.
I tried commenting out the $folder as you suggested but it doesn't
seem to help. I also noticed that $MAIL was set to
/var/spool/mail/... so I also pointed that at ~/Mail.
After pressing 'c', you can use '!' to go to what mutt considers your
"inbox" ($spoolfile), and '=' or '+' to go to $folder.
If you have $folder set as ~/Mail, mutt will start there without you
passing '-f ~/Mail'. I've noticed you using ~/mail and ~/Mail at
different times, which is it? What does dovecot think it is? What does
mutt think it is?
I've set everything - mutt, dovecot, procmail to use ~/Mail now.
I'll checkout '!', thanks.
