Package: mutt
Version: 1.5.20-1
Severity: important

What am I trying to do: 

Have mutt check for new mail in a list of mailboxes that is dynamically
generated.

How am I trying to do it:

Using the "mailboxes" command with backtick substitution in my ~/.muttrc.

What behaviour did I expect:

When I have
        mailboxes `echo '=foo \'; echo '=bar'`
in my ~/.muttrc, I expect mutt to check both the =foo and =bar folders for
new mail, as it has been doing up to and including 1.5.18-6+b1.

What behaviour did I get:

With 1.5.20-1, only =foo is checked for new mail; =bar is not checked.
