Using Mutt with different configurations

If you wind up using mutt sometimes with IMAP and sometimes with offlineimap, or once for your home account and once for your work account, you will need different configurations. My simple solution is simply to use different .muttrc files, and create aliases to run them. For example, create .mutt-home, .mutt-school, and .mutt-home-offline files. Then in your .bashrc file, create aliases, so that homemutt becomes a command that runs mutt -F .mutt-home. In your .bashrc, that would be alias homemutt='mutt -F .mutt-home'. Do the same for your other configurations.
