FWIW, tilde is expanded only when it appears as the first character in
the string.

Yes, I think so.  First, please pull.  The recent commits contain
important changes that should make this possible.  Then, in order to
save messages by recipient name, set the following:

  # Folder where files will be created
  set folder="~/Maildir"
  
  # Instruct mail to store outgoing messages in files located in
  # "folder" and named after the recipient email:
  set outfolder

  # Name these files by entire recipient email, instead of the local
  # part only:
  set outfilename=email
