The problem is I can't swap between accounts using 'c', I believe this
is because both accounts are using the same IMAP URL so mutt is unable
to distinguish between the two!?
I have finally found a solution I am happy with.
I am using "offlineimap" to sync all my IMAP accounts (2 GMail, 1
Hotmail, 8 Yahoo, 1 Work) to individual folders on my local machine.
Then using Mutt to 'c'hange between each folder. Which seems to be the
way Mutt is meant to work!?
The beauty of "offlineimap" is that it continually syncs in the
background, so emails with large attachments will begin downloading
ready for viewing in Mutt.
I followed the instructions given here, which provide a comprehensive
(well to a newbie anyway) guide on how to email on *nix:

I also like the solution for SMTP in the background which effectively
makes sending large emails instantaneous.
I just wanted to acknowledge the well written page by tomka, might even
get Bitcoins just to donate.

Esther.
