Stephen, thanks for the response.

That's the weird thing, as far as I know my config is exactly the
same. I don't know where to look for any differences, but see some
configuration directives below. I'm not sure exactly what you mean by
"different folder index", but hopefully this helps clear up some of
your questions. I chopped out parts that seem irrelevant. Email
addresses obfuscated because I fear the spambots ;-)

__part of .fetchmailrc:
poll incoming.verizon.net
        protocol pop3
        uidl
        user foo
        keep
        mda "/usr/bin/env CONTEXT=verizon /usr/bin/procmail -p -Y -t -f %F"

poll mail.comcast.net
        protocol pop3
        uidl
        user bar
        mda "/usr/bin/env CONTEXT=comcast /usr/bin/procmail -p -Y -t -f %F"
__ end chunk of .fetchmailrc

you'll understand the messy mda line in a moment. verizon works as
expected, comcast does not.

__ from .procmailrc
MAILDIR = $HOME/.mail
DEFAULT = /var/mail/isaac
[snip]
:0:
* CONTEXT ?? ^verizon$
$MAILDIR/verizon

:0:
* CONTEXT ?? ^comcast$
$MAILDIR/comcast
__end .procmailrc chunk

__finally, from .muttrc
alternates "(foo@verizon.net|bar@comcast.net)"
[snip]
mailboxes ! =verizon =yahoo =comcast =hotmail =Spam
[snip]
folder-hook .        my_hdr From: Isaac Bennetch <isaac@example.org>
folder-hook =verizon my_hdr From: Isaac Bennetch <foo@verizon.net>
folder-hook =comcast my_hdr From: Isaac Bennetch <bar@comcast.net>
__end .muttrc

So everything looks identical between comcast and verizon to my eye,
however the comcast account exhibits the weird "from" behavior in mutt
whereas the verizon account (and my other half-dozen accounts) are
normal.

Thanks for your help!
