To update, I put the full path in for both 'set record' and 'set
postponed' (such as "~/.mail/fastmail/INBOX.Sent") and both the remote
Drafts and Send folders get populated as would be expected.
But I'm still not sure what the format should be for the 'mailboxes'
line in .muttrc. While on IMAP, I can hit 'c' and will be prompted with
the next folder that contains new mail. I had a line when connecting
via IMAP like:
mailboxes =INBOX.ale =INBOX.mutt
What should be the syntax for mailboxes entries when pointing to a local
Maildir?
Thanks.
