Since I changed from mbox to Maildir format, mutt/neomutt does not save sent email in ~/.muttrc I have
et mbox_type=Maildir
set folder="~/Maildir"    
set mask="!^\\.[^.]"
set mbox="~/Maildir"      
set spoolfile="~/Maildir"     
set postponed="+.Drafts"  # this I added after but nothing changed
set record="+.Sent"       # this I added after but nothing changed
the ~/Maildir tree
$ ls -R Maildir/
Maildir/:
cur  Draft  draftbox  new  outbox  Sent  sentbox  tmp  trash

Maildir/cur:
1737497891.V10307I5fbe8M146242.myhostname      1738400102.V10306Ic54e2M329900.myhostname:2,S

If inside mutt/neomutt I try to open one of that *.myhostname file, mutt/neomutt says "~/Maildir/new/1739466647.V10306Ica30cM369123.myhostname is not a mailbox" Anyone has some advice ?
