IMAP browsing
I think it would be a good idea if c gave me folder tree of my current account and not local folders. ie if I am viewing somebody@somewhere/INBOX c should give me imap://somebody@somewhere/, not ~/Mail (or whatever). The annoying behavior is observed in mutt-1.3.27i-4mdk. Or is there a simple way of browsing my IMAP account I have overlooked? Or prehaps there is a -devel list where this should be posted?

I can now browse my IMAP folders. I believe there's an setting you can tweak to get this by default, but too lazy to look it up now...
