📄 Description

neomutt won't write to these locations. Processes it spawns might read
to some of them, but creating an empty file doesn't help. This just
pollutes user's $HOME with empty files and directories.

I've kept a few paths that MAY be written to by neomutt; it's not ideal,
but I want to minimise the risk of potential data loss, even if it is
corener cases.
