    I'm trying to configure Mutt at my office to handle 2 different IMAPS
    mail servers. Currently in my muttrc I have this:

    set spoolfile={mail1/ssl}INBOX
    set folder={mail1/ssl}

    mailboxes {mail1/ssl}INBOX
    mailboxes imaps://archives
    mailboxes imaps://archives/corporate
    mailboxes imaps://archives/corporate/syst

    the 1st line works great. The rest are the problem. There is no
    INBOX and those 3 are directories. In the syst directory is another
    subset of directories which have the actual mailboxes in them.

    In order to access the archives I have to "c" then <tab> and change to
    mail1, then do that again and change back to archives. Any operation
    in there repeats for all 3 telling me that it's not a selectable
    mailbox. If I open a mailbox in syst/june and I try to do a search,
    it give me "XXX isn't a selectable mailbox" for each of the 3 which
    are dirs.

    Anyone have an idea if I have the wrong syntax or any ideas? I've
    read most of the muttrc files I can find on google and the docs,
    nothing covers trying to read 2 or more mailboxes which are actually
    on different servers or the mailboxes are on different servers and
    directories of directories with mailboxes.

    I've tried the mutt mailing list, no responses there.
