On my machine, sample muttrc files are located in
/usr/share/doc/mutt/examples. There are a couple of muttrc files and a
sample mailcap file there.
If you have the source, then there are samples of both in the contrib
directory, and a longer sample muttrc in the doc directory.

I believe they are of the form "+[Gmail]/Trash", for example. But I
think you might get by with just setting the spoolfile to be "+INBOX".
Good luck!
