    You can't, by design principle. One possible workaround is to:

 -0) Make sure settings done in default folder-hooks are also done
statically in muttrc.

 -1) Move all the commands from inside the uunet folder-hook(s) to a
file called profile-uunet.

 -2) Change the uunet folder-hook(s) to one:

| folder-hook \\<uunet$ "source ~/.mutt/profile-uunet"

 -3) Create a file muttrc-uunet containing 2 lines:

| source ~/.mutt/muttrc
| source ~/.mutt/profile-uunet

 -4) do "mutt -F ~/.mutt/muttrc-uunet asdf@xxxxxxxx".


Bye!    Alain.
