[ale] mutt and multiple accounts

[Keith Ledford]

I use this combo also for mutt at work. For my domain I am using imap
but it is filtered into mailboxes with qmail before I access it. I do
have a keyboard shortcut that will check the postmaster account on my
domain so you should be able to use the below as a template. 

So when I press ctrl-A I get prompted for the postmaster password on
domain.com. I can then get back to my main mailbox by pressing c-!

macro index \cA	 "c\cu imaps://postmaster@domain.com/INBOX\n" "check postmaster"
macro pager \cA	 "c\cu imaps://postmaster@domain.com/INBOX\n" "check postmaster"
