I'm using screen since a long long time to run multiple mutt instances, each one with a different account, sharing a common .muttrc, and multiple "per-instance" .muttrc. If that sounds interesting, have a look at [1]: A setup similar to mine is described there. If you are in the need of further details, don't hesitate!

Where should I be reading to find this information? a good starting point is described in ArchWiki: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Mutt#Multiple_accounts TL;DR: Mutt does not support multiple accounts in one single muttrc. Instead, you create a muttrc for each account you want to access. In your "main" muttrc you then create folder-hooks, so that when you access a certain account, the according muttrc will be sourced. --

mutt configuring multiple accounts and reading multiple accounts
For now, I am reading gmail quite successfully with mutt. I would like to find out how to add more accounts to my .muttrc file and once added how to read email from those accounts when other accounts in the .muttrc file are not the default account. panix.com and comcast.net are two of the additional accounts I'd like to be able to read remotely as well as mac.com and yahoo.com. Where should I be reading to find this information? --
