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!

Good luck and all the best,
Georg

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

2016-10-30 Thread Jude DaShiell
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?
