BTW account-hooks are intended to configure the connections to
various accounts, typically $imap_*, $pop_*, and $smtp_* variables. They
are triggered at each connection and reconnection, at moments not always
expected by the user. Mutt can maintain multiple simultaneous
connections: To the currently opened IMAP account, of course, but also
to several IMAP mailboxes checked for new mail, to a destination account
during <copy-message>, to yet another IMAP hierarchy you browse, und so
weiter. Each connection gets its own good parameters, but at user level
nobody knows which account-hook was triggered last.
Account-hooks are not suited to manipulate $folder in any usefull
non-random way: You may want to use folder-hooks for things like that.
Those are triggered user-predictably: When the user opens a folder.
Bye! Alain.
