"source ~/.mutt/muttrc.common" message-hook . "source ~/.mutt/muttrc.common" where muttrc.common is where all the main settings are. then, later, i have a few stanzas that look something like: # settings specific for debian-related stuff folder-hook +debian "source ~/.mutt/muttrc.debian" message-hook "~t .*@.*debian.org" "source ~/.mutt/muttrc.debian" if the message is to a debian address, or in my debian mailbox, it sources my debian muttrc (which sets my address/sig/etc). if i change back to my inbox, it sources the common muttrc again, reseting my settings to their default. i imagine you could do something similar: cat << EOF > .mutt/muttrc.mailrotate mbox-hook +ML.plug "+lists/ML.plug-`date +%Y-%m`" mbox-hook +ML.foo "+lists/ML.foo-`date +%Y-%m`" EOF and then in your muttrc: folder-hook . "source ~/.mutt/muttrc.mailrotate" though i think it might be a bit excessive to do this on a message by message basis. you could also re-source the mailrotate muttrc file if you haven't changed your mailbox in over a month :) sean Attachment:
