Hey Tom,
thanks for your reply! Unfortunately the change did not cause any
improvement. I still can read only the INBOX of the last user entry. Are there
any specific folder-hooks parameter you added to your account files, so
that mutt can distinguish between the different user accounts? For
now I couldn't accomplish anything, which might solve the problem.
Best, Malte
