I'd be interested to know. Has anyone tried? Say, by forwarding a
set of messages (each in a separate message) locally. I don't know
whether this is possible without involving changes in the display
between each message (which would waste time).

But in any case, a system that would send personalized messages to
its local users via Mutt would start a different Mutt process for
each message, so that there would be a different PID in general.
