It needs to be changed at point of use, because other programs may use
_mailboxes that understand MH directory format without understanding the
MH `+folder' naming convention.  So _mh_cache needs to contain full path
names.

} It still doesn't handle the feature of MH (which I don't suppose anyone

} at.

Where does one obtain the name of the last folder?  Fill it in to the
`lastmhbox' parameter below, and uncomment the corresponding lines.

The following patch is INSTEAD OF Peter's, because Peter hasn't committed
his yet.

By the way (Sven), when I complete after "mutt -f " (with no prefix in
the current word) I -still- get a blank item as the first menu-selection.
I thought we fixed that bug a long time ago?
