Wrong.  I can do that now.  Using multiple mutts to access one 
mailbox has the problem that each instance of mutt has its own idea 
of the status of each message and that status can't currently be 
sync'd among multiple mutts.  What would be nice is a way to have 
one mutt display multiple views of the same mailbox.
