Description:
When using gnus-Subject-save-in-folder there appears a message in the
mini-buffer stating that the folder to save the message in doesn't
exist and asking if it should be created even if the folder exists!
answering "yes" saves the message without further complaining.
Cause:
This behaviour is due to mh-prompt-for-folder not knowing how to
expand the given folder name because mh-user-path is unknown.
Remedy:
The following patch will do:
