Solution 1.

# muttrc
source muttrc.`hostname`

# muttrc.zbmc.eu
my_hdr From: Chris Green <ch...@isbd.co.uk>

# muttrc.cheddar.halon.org.uk
my_hdr From: Chris Green <ch...@halon.org.uk>


Solution 2.

source "mutt-localrc |"

#!/bin/sh
# mutt-localrc: provide dynamic local settings

host_zbmc_eu () {
        echo "my_hdr From: Chris Green <ch...@isbd.co.uk>"
}

host_cheddar_halon_org_uk () {
        echo "my_hdr From: Chris Green <ch...@halon.org.uk>"
}

host_$(hostname | tr . _)
