I know it is Greb, also Alex, if you're just playing Mutt to learn more about I'd probably do it is a different user other than the one who has mail in their home dir already such that you don't do anything to make your messages inaccessible to you when you use Pine, however this is just my opinion. So, if it were me I'd probably do an useradd to be on the safe side and play as the new user until you're comfortable with Mutt and you have the .Muttrc customized to your liking, then I would copy the new users .Muttrc to the other users home dir as room and change permissions as needed.
