Having recently got a new laptop, I've started using offlineimap to download
mail from my personal and work accounts so I can read my mail when I'm offline.

I've followed the instructions in the offlineimap man page for handling multiple
accounts with mutt, and everything is working perfectly except some odd
behaviour regarding postponed messages. I have folder hooks to set the postponed
folder for each account, like below:

folder-hook home.example.com 'set postponed="+home.example.com/Unsent"'
folder-hook work.example.com 'set postponed="+work.example.com/Unsent"'

When I start mutt, it comes up in the inbox for my personal account, and the
correct number of postponed messages is displayed in the statusbar. If I open
another folder within the same account, the postponed count stays correct. When
I switch to a folder in the work account, it still shows the number of postponed
messages from my home account. Postponed messages do go to the right folder, and
if I type 'R' to recall a postponed message, it shows postponed messages from
the right account.

Not showing the right count of postponed messages is only a slight irritation,
but when the status bar is incorrectly showing no postponed messages and I start
a new mail I don't get prompted to recall one. I can work around it (I just need
to remember to use recall-message instead of relying on the prompt from mail),
but it would be great if this could be fixed.
