OK, what I and some others do is we use a filter to sort incoming mails into different mailboxes. Mutt can then see which mailboxes have new mails an display them right away. If you want to try that system, have a look at Maildrop, which is a mailfilter with quite powerful features and an easy rule language.
I guess you can also build the exact same thing you describe above. Start by writing Mutt macros to limit the mails to that of the single lists ('<limit>~t [EMAIL PROTECTED]'), then write another macro which moves the mail and which I have no idea how to do right now. >Then I have a question regarding address books - is there support >for something alike in mutt?? I heard something about that, but it may have been a patch. Did you look for it in the manual? At the very least, you can do LDAP queries. Thorsten -- Intolerant people should be shot.
