I run mutt from a bash function which (a) changes directory and (b)
sets -nw for emacs (with mutt -e) if I'm coming in over the phone.
So I'd do it with multiple instances of mutt, using -e to set the
variables required.

This would require the filtering of incoming mail with procmail into
separate inboxes so that you wouldn't be setting different flags on
the same inbox. (Mutt would cope, but the user probably wouldn't.)
However, it's very likely that, with multiple personalities having
separate email addresses, filtering is already being done anyway.

Nice one!
