I'm using offlineimap + mutt + msmtp to handle my email. I would like to have an unorthodox configuration, where all of my current mail (received, sent, and drafts) reside in the INBOX (or at least a single primary folder) and all the rest to be in the archive. This way I can push emails that I no longer need anymore to the archive and have all my current tasks and things that I need to keep track of easily accessible. Any thoughts on how to do this? Would mutt be the place to do this sort of sorting, or would I want to set up some sort of post-sync hook in offlineimap to take care of shuffling things around?

In your .muttrc:
set mbox=imap://imapsrvr/INBOX
set record=imap://imapsrvr/INBOX
set spoolfile=imap://imapsrvr/INBOX
set postponed=imap://imapsrvr/INBOX
though I've never seen what mutt would make of the inbox being your drafts folder. I assume it will treat all emails in your inbox as drafts (untested).

That is the way of it. When you set the postponed to the inbox, it says that they are all postponed. Presumably it does not actually look at the D flag in the Maildir files for this.Aleksandr– Aleksandr2014-04-25 12:14:21 +00:00Commented Apr 25, 2014 at 12:14
