Well, a couple of tiny wrapped scripts get you two different mutts
easily. I know that's not quite what you're after. So read on...
But you want to switch. Two approaches suggest themselves to me here:
- a message-hook to re-source a muttrc on reading a message,
if you can switch accounts on that basis (eg based on the to/cc of
the message)
- macros as stated, _but_ to get a "menu" you make a directory with a
muttrc per account, named after the account (eg muttrc files
named "[EMAIL PROTECTED]", "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" etc) and then
have your macro read:
macro index ":source ~/rc/mutt/accts/<tab>"
which triggers the file pathname completion, neatly presenting
you with a list of account names!
How's that sound?
