Another approach might be to have three short "stub" .muttrc files in the home directories, each of which would do a few lines of OS-specific config, and then use the "source" command to include a file stored on your /Common partition containing all your common configuration. (That would avoid the need to copy a file to back to each of the home directories each time you wanted to change some aspect of the common configuration.) Nathan
