Not that I know of. If I were interested in it I would probably use GNU screen, split the screen and invoke 2 intances of mutt.

Not automatically. If I knew the the categories in advance I'd probably use the MDA (procmail etc.) for it. But with <limit> (bound to "l" by default) and mutt's pattern matching you can do a lot on the fly, e.g. viewing all messages by you is just a matter of typing: l~P View all messages from configured mailing lists: l~L etc. > This is different from moving the messages into different > folders.

No split views either though, afaics. I haven't tried it. c -- _B A U S T E L L E N_ lesen! --->> <http://www.blacktrash.org/baustellen/>
