I am looking for proper Mutt setting for Maildir-style mailboxes.

My mail comes as follows to my "Maildir-style" mail folder:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
POP3     cable-modem     exim
server -> fetchmail -> procmail -+-> ~/Mail/mailing_list1/ 
                                 +-> ~/Mail/mailing_list2/
                                 +-> ~/Mail/default_folder/
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes, I have several procmail filters to separate mailing lists
and put them to the separate folders.

In this configuration, my spool /var/mail/username is always empty.

If $MAIL is not set, mutt open without any mail.

If "export MAIL=~/Mail/default_folder/", it opens default_folder/ 
mail but existing to see other mail boxes ("c" command) causes 
Mutt to asked me to store read mail elsewhere.

What is the most appropriate way to intiate Mutt under this kind of
maildir folders.

If mailboxes are set in .muttrc as

mailboxes `ls -F -1 ~/Mail|grep /|sed -e 's/^/~\/Mail\//'|tr "\n" " "`

  $ mutt -y 

works fine for start but shows list of folders with double // attached.

Once I read into the folder, I can not come back (well, "c" will 
get back similar menu but not quite.)

Any good idea, guys?
