Ben,
I received the following suggestion on the mutt-users list:
set spoolfile=~/Mail/inbox
mailboxes ! +suse-linux
After I put these two lines in the rc file, then Mutt opened up my inbox without
any error message. My inbox happens to be empty at the moment so I didn't see
any headers. However, in my Mail dir I also have a suse-linux mailbox into which
I successfully downloaded some mail earlier today. How do I get Mutt to view
that mailbox? In other words, how do I switch mailboxes.

Jerry, if you just use the .bashrc commands I told ya about it will work. You don't need to set it just in the muttrc. I'm not sure where the problem is coming from. I've setup quite a few people with Mutt at work and all I do is add 'MAIL=$HOME/Mail/Incoming' and change every instance of ben to their username. The three files I sent ya should work. What's the exact error your getting?
