Mutt and Imap question

I'm taking Ping's suggestion and am trying Mutt for remote
email access.
I use dovecot with Maildir for the imap server. I can view
the inbox fine but can't access the subdirectories
Here is the .muttrc lines that would be relevant
set spoolfile=imap://office-mail@star/
set folder=imap://office-mail@star/
set record=imap://office-mail@star/Sent
set imap_user=office-mail
mailboxes =/home/office-mail/Maildir/
mailboxes + `\
for file in ~/.maildir/.*; do \
box=$(basename "$file"); \
if [ ! "$box" = '.' -a ! "$box" = '..' -a ! "$box" =
'.customflags' \
-a ! "$box" = '.subscriptions' ]; then \
echo -n "\"+$box\" "; \
fi; \
done; \
for folder in ~/.maildir/*; do \
if [ -x $folder]; then \
box=$(basename "$folder"); \
for file in ~/.maildir/$box/.*; do \
box2=$(basename "$file"); \
if [ ! "$box2" = '.' -a ! "$box2" = '..' -a
! "$box2" = '.customflags' \
-a ! "$box2" = '.subscriptions' ]; then \
echo -n "\"+$box/$box2\" "; \
fi; \
done; \
fi; \
done`
I am pretty sure I need to change ~/maildir to something but
don't know what to use in its place. Also I changed
mailboxes from Mail to Maildir but it doesn't seem to change
anything.
Thanks
Linda
