Hi--

I'm converting to mutt from Gnus.  So far, I'm impressed by mutt's
speed.  :)  However, there's something I was doing with Gnus that I
can't figure out with mutt, and I was wondering if somebody could help
me out:

I've got an IMAP account at work, and an IMAP account at home.  When
I'm at work, I'd like mutt to check my (multiple) inboxes at work and
my (multiple) inboxes at home.  When I decide to file a message into
another mailbox, it would be nice if I didn't have to type the entire
name of the server and mailbox; it would be nice if mutt would prompt
me with at least the current server name, and probably the current
IMAP hierarchy name.

Currently, I've got something like this:

set folder="{mail.home.org}"
set spoolfile="{mail.work.com}INBOX"
mailboxes {mail.work.com}INBOX
mailboxes {mail.home.org}INBOX
mailboxes {mail.home.org}INBOX.*

(I'm using cyrus, so all mailboxes are "INBOX" or "INBOX.*".)  But it
only appears to check {mail.home.org}INBOX for new mail; if I'm
reading mail at home, and something comes into the work INBOX, it
doesn't tell me.  And it doesn't appear to check INBOX.* at home,
either.

Everything else that I want to do, I think I can, due to the excellent
flexibility of mutt.

TIA.

Chris
