The trick I have used since about 3 years is that I color my
messages. Magenta for Solaris lists, yellow for OpenBSD, blue for
mutt and rt and cyan for messages adressed to me.

--BEGIN .muttrc--
# Index colors are my favorite.
# Set up the defaults.
color   index           white           default "~A"
color   index           cyan            default "~C isk.kth.se"
color   index           yellow          default "~C openbsd"
color   index           red             default "~C [EMAIL PROTECTED]"
color   index           magenta         default "~C [EMAIL PROTECTED]"
color   index           magenta         default "~C [EMAIL PROTECTED]"
color   index           magenta         default "~C [EMAIL PROTECTED]"
color   index           magenta         default "~C 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
color   index           magenta         default "~C [EMAIL PROTECTED]"
color   index           blue            default "~C [EMAIL PROTECTED]"
color   index           blue            default "~C [EMAIL PROTECTED]"
color   index           blue            default "~C [EMAIL PROTECTED]"
color   index           blue            default "~C [EMAIL PROTECTED]"
color   index           cyan            default "~p"
--END .muttrc--

One can also use <Tab> to find the next message and "N" to toggle
off the New flag. And also use a special color on new messages.
