For the "From:" you could specify a shell script that outputs
your desired "From:" address on stdout, then use a send-hook to
call it. For example, if the script to generate your "From:"
address is ~/.mutt/selectfrom (and is mode +x) you could:
send-hook . "set from=\"`~/.mutt/selectfrom`\""
(Note the use of backquotes for command substitution.)
For the signature, just specify the script with a pipe. If
$signature ends with a pipe ('|'), it is treated as a shell
command and its stdout is used as the signature. If you had a
script ~/.mutt/createsig that delivered a random signature on
stdout, then:
set signature='~/.mutt/createsig|'
Good luck. :)
