As a Debian Lenny user I have downloaded and installed Mutt-patched. How
must I configure my ~/.muttrc to see the folders list on the left of
display? Now i don't see them. My folders are organized as Maildirs in
my home folder.

Thanks to the answerers :-)

By reading the manual in /usr/share/doc/mutt-patched (or whereever you
installed mutt-patched docs to) you will see that you need to configure:

# which mailboxes to list in the sidebar
mailboxes =Inbox =Folder1 =Folder2, ... , =FolderN

# set up the sidebar
set sidebar_visible=yes

You did read that, right? ;-)
