I am quite new to mutt, so I am just learning. I initially started
trying to mimic other mail clients (like kmail) and spent some time trying to
find a way to read different imap accounts from within mutt. 

After playing for a while, I feel that mutt has its own logic. It is
much easier to start each imap account in a different console (as it has been 
suggested in
the thread) than trying to have all the imap accounts to be read inside a 
single mutt. As I also have
started playing with scripts, I have written a
small script to start each different account:

I have this file: /usr/local/bin/correu
#!/bin/bash 
echo "Accounts: joanet, uab, fic, master"
if [ $1 = "joanet" ] || [ $1 = "uab" ] || [ $1 = "fic"  ] || [ $1 = "master" ]
then
        mutt -F ~/.mutt/Comptes/$1
else
        echo "This account does not exists:" $1
fi

I write 'correu <name_of_my_account>' and I can access different and even the 
same account
from different consoles. 

Each account definition is stored in ~/.mutt/Comptes/, and each account
sources the general muttrc configuration file. 

Cheers!
