Results are:-

    chris@cheddar$ grep "~/Mail" ~/.muttrc /etc/muttrc ~/.mutt/muttrc
    grep: /home/chris/.muttrc: No such file or directory
    grep: /etc/muttrc: No such file or directory
    /home/chris/.mutt/muttrc:set spoolfile=~/Maildir/in
    /home/chris/.mutt/muttrc:mailboxes  ~/Maildir/in
    chris@cheddar$ grep set\ folder ~/.muttrc /etc/muttrc ~/.mutt/muttrc
    grep: /home/chris/.muttrc: No such file or directory
    grep: /etc/muttrc: No such file or directory
    /home/chris/.mutt/muttrc:set folder_format="%N %-32.32f %d %6s"
    chris@cheddar$ 

There really *arent't* any references to ~/Mail!  :-)
