Just happy to report some success with mutt.
My personal email is hosted by Dreamhost and accessible via IMAP.
I typically read my email from a Linux workstation and save my email to
that workstation's disk. But I also like to read my email via Dreamhost's web
interface and via my phone's email app.
I found that there were a subset of emails that I wanted to be able to
manually put into a separate folder for later viewing from any one of these
three mail clients -- mutt, browser, phone app.
To achieve this I created the needed folder at Dreamhost and configured
mutt to know about that folder as a 'mailbox'.
# Where I get my email from
set spoolfile="{arenson\@spatzel....@imap.dreamhost.com/ssl}INBOX"
mailboxes !
# Sometimes I move emails to this other folder to process later
mailboxes "{arenson\@spatzel....@imap.dreamhost.com/ssl}INBOX/Points"
# Where I save my received email after processing it
set folder="~/m"
That's it. Nothing spectacular, but on the off chance someone else
might find this useful, I wanted to put it out there. In the future I look
forward to using the '-label' option with mailboxes, but Dreamhost hasn't
upgraded to a version that supports it yet.
