Decide what is the default first. So, assuming you don't want the signature on
top to be the default:
folder-hook . 'unset sig_on_top; set signature=~/some_sig_file; [ ... ]'
folder-hook work 'set sig_on_top=yes; set
signature=~/some_work_sig_file; [ ... ]'
You could also use send hooks based on the address you're sending to or from.
set from=y...@normaldomain.net
set reverse_name
alternates y...@workdomain.net
send-hook . ' my_hdr From: y...@normaldomain.net; set sig_on_top=no;
set signature=~/some_sig_file'
send-hook '~f y...@workdomain.net | ~C @workdomain.net' \ # from
address "or" to or cc addresses
'set my_hdr From: y...@workdomain.net; set
sig_on_top=yes; \
set signature=~/some_work_sig_file;'
These might be crappy examples, but with hooks you need to set your sefault
setting at the top so mutt can revert back to it after executing a proceeding
hook.
Someone will show something better i'm sure. There are several ways to do it.
