Comment (by kevin8t8):
The behavior was discussed in ticket 2402 from 9 years ago, so at least
that long. At that time, it looks like they discussed changing the
shortcut, but it looks like that never happened.
Note that the regexp matching still occurs, but the caret at the beginning
is basically removed from the regexp. So
{{{
folder-hook ^buildd$ source .muttrc.buildd
}}}
is the same as:
{{{
folder-hook buildd$ source .muttrc.buildd
}}}
