alphabetically listing
Hello, I would like the directory/mailbox listings to be in alphabetical order. Is this possible? For example when I open a mailbox and choose (? for list). I'm not sure how it is sorted now.

Kurt It looks to me that you've got your mail folders nested within subdirectories of your ~/Mail directory. There may be a reason for this, but it seems unnecessarily complicated. If, instead, your mail is kept in files directly under your ~/Mail directory, mutt will, by default, list them in alpha order. You could set up these files using procmail or, if you're doing all this manually (my guess), simply execute: touch ~/Mail/foo to create the folder. Then, save mail to the new folder(s) as usual.
