 No, not really.

:-(

 So whip up a little script that goes through your procmail rules and
 grabs where you write and source that in your mailboxes line.

My procmail rules use regexes to generate folder names on the fly!

Oh well.  Maybe I'll just try and putz with the mutt source.

Hmmm...  So have procmail generate the folder name and then hand it off
to a script which checks a list to see if it's known and adds it if it
isn't and then have your mutt mailboxes script utilize that file, mebbe.

Short of that, the only thing of which I can think is to have a directory
or a file name mask for all of your list folders, perhaps acheived through
symlinks, so that you can use a shell expression in mutt's mailboxes line.

That's always nice, too.  Let us know if you come up with anything!

I'm thinking I'll make a Makefile for my .muttrc.  It's getting scary, anyway.

I will.  But expect nothing!
