[Linux-disciples] Mutt: Copying sent messages to two IMAP outboxes

I use mutt for two different IMAP accounts, one at work and
one at home. I don't know of any good way to do this within
a single mutt instance, so I have a home_mutt script and a
work_mutt script, each of which consults a different .muttrc
that points to a different IMAP inbox.

I'd like to coalesce these mutt instances into a single one.
Barring that, it'd be nice to have mutt save all outgoing
messages to two separate IMAP boxes, viz.

1) imaps://laniels.org/sent
2) imaps://work_server.com/sent

I can't see any good way to do this. Has anyone made this
work?

Maybe now's just the time for me to use Thunderbird, which
at least supports multiple IMAP boxes by default.
