Thanks to all (esp. Ainesley)who offered inspired syntax for .muttrc. It
strikes me that the biggest 'fleas' in mutt are the sample muttrc file
and the default options.

I actually only got 3/4 way with this. Here is the relevant chunk:

set from="Declan Moriarty"<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
send-hook inbox my_hdr from: "Declan Moriarty"<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
send-hook blfs my_hdr from: "Declan Moriarty"<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
send-hook chipdir my_hdr from: "Declan Moriarty"<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
set envelope_from=yes

So when I change to the blfs mailbox and press 'r' to reply to a message
I get [EMAIL PROTECTED] But if I were to press 'm' for new mail, I'd get
the wrong address <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. Having replied to one mail,
I seem to be OK. Whassup?
