only ideas and untried and unknown:
You have told mutt to *only* use ~/.mutt-mail_aliases, "set alias_file="
perhaps,
set alias_file=~/.mutt-mail_aliases;~/.mutt-xxxx
or it may not be possible currently.
Except for your own "preference", why not combine them?
And perhaps this would be a good use of hooks, source and set the aliase
file according to the recipient. And source is probably only required
once.
