do you really have different accounts (i.e., different
host/username/password) or just different folders?
i have two email accounts (one fastmail, one university) which i both
access through imap. i simply have two mutt instances running in a screen
session. actually, i have three mutt instances in a screen session, the
third is for my local folders. my .screenrc ends with the following lines:
screen -t "Local mail" mutt -F .muttrc-local
screen -t "Fastmail" mutt -F .muttrc-fm
screen -t "Uni Frankfurt" mutt -F .muttrc-jwg
each of the .muttrc-* files contains settings that are specific for each
account, and additionally i have a .muttrc-gen for general settings that
gets sourced by each of the specific .muttrc-* files.
i've had this setup for years and i find it works quite well for handling
multiple accounts.
