  2. mutt.profile: stop creating editor/browser paths 

    To reduce the amount of spam created in the user home directory.

It's unlikely that these paths are going to be both:

* Created only after mutt is first opened through firejail and
* Created from within mutt

Also, no other profile does that:

    $ git grep -El '(mkdir|mkfile) \$\{HOME\}/\.(emacs|nano|vim)' -- etc
    etc/profile-m-z/mutt.profile

So just whitelist them if they already exist.

profile for neomutt", 2020-12-28) / PR netblue30#3849.

  3. mutt.profile: stop creating config files for other programs 

    Let either the respective program or the user create the file.

* ~/.bogofilter: Used by the bogofilter program
* ~/.msmtprc: Used by the msmtp program
