For each special folder-hook line add one folder-hook . 'set variable=default-case' , where variable and default-case are not literal. The "folder-hook ." lines need to be read by mutt before the special case ones, e.g., put them above the special case lines in the same muttrc file. The dotted lines tell mutt what to do in the default case, while the lines you've created tell mutt what to do in the specific case. -- Monte
