Without knowing the details of your setup, I don't know if you've configured it so that nothing ever ends up in /var/spool/mail/rland. I think the safest thing to do is to set MAILPATH to include both /var/spool/mail and whatever directory your custom inbox is in, so you don't miss anything. > By the way, does Mutt 1.4 enable to jump up to previous messages > (whilest in the pager).

I've got mutt 0.95.3i and the default keybindings allow me to do this with left-arrow and right-arrow for previous and next message respectively.
