I can't think of a great way to select from a list, but it doesn't seem
impossible since you can set your signature to the-output-of-a-program...
First write yourself a sig picker, and then see what you can do to make
it work from your muttrc ;-)

% Thanks for your suggestion.
That's probably the better way.
%
% Can you please send me a sample of setting folder hooks?
Sure...
folder-hook . set signature=$HOME/.mutt/sig
folder-hook F.madi set signature=$HOME/.mutt/sig.madi
The key is the default case (since "." matches any folder) as well as the
special case.
% Do I have to be in that folder to have that specific signature? Sometimes I am
% in the DEFAULT folder but would like to send mail to mutt with a different
% signature? Can I do this without changing to the different folder?
The best way to do this is to use a send-hook, which performs its
functions based on the recipient. Something like
send-hook . set signature=$HOME/.mutt/sig
send-hook [EMAIL PROTECTED] set signature=$HOME/mutt/sig.joe
send-hook @workplace.com set signature=$HOME/mutt/sig.work
Beware of tricky interactions between folder-hooks and send-hooks,
though :-)
:-D
