Hi Heinz,

Thanks for your feedback.  You most certainly are not stupid, as this
is one of the things I was worried about.

It sounds like you have something like this set up in your muttrc:
macro index,pager <Tab> "<change-folder>?<toggle-mailboxes>"

The patch makes it unnecessary to "<toggle-mailboxes>" at the end.  If
you hit Tab again, do your mailboxes appear?

In any case, this is pretty quick confirmation that the patch probably
isn't a good idea.
