I'm not sure if you can exactly what you are asking for,
but what you can do is you can have per-folder hooks
in mutt so that depending on what folder you are in,
you can change from, organization, and other settings.
For example, from my muttrc:
# Remove all hooks when changing folders. VERY IMPORTANT
folder-hook . unmy_hdr *
# Folder hooks for all (.)
folder-hook . 'my_hdr From:
dsaxena@plexity.net'
folder-hook . 'my_hdr Reply-To:
dsaxena@plexity.net'
folder-hook . 'my_hdr Organization: Plexity Networks'
folder-hook . set record="~/Mail/sent-mail"
folder-hook . set signature="~/.sig"
# Folder hooks for happydirt stuff
folder-hook happydirt/* unmy_hdr *
folder-hook happydirt/* 'my_hdr From:
dsaxena@happydirtveggiepatch.com'
folder-hook happydirt/* 'my_hdr Reply-To:
dsaxena@happydirtveggiepatch.com'
folder-hook happydirt/* 'my_hdr Organization: Happy Dirt Veggie Patch"
folder-hook happydirt/* set record="~/Mail/happydirt/sent"
folder-hook happydirt/* set signature="~/.sig-happydirt"
I have my procmail setup to automatically filter messages to different
folders. If you want to do it on a per message basis, it might be
easier to add macros to your .vimrc to populate 'From' with the
correct info and edit the headers before sending. The mutt webpage
has detailed docs on the folder-hooks and all the settings you
can change. I believe that the order of the hooks matters b/c they
are processed sequenetially.
