Move false positive spam to multiple folders

Hello fellow mutt users,
I am currently setting up my environment to use SpamAssassin. I currently have procmail filtering all
messages above a certain threshold to SPAM folder. Also, I have a script that is set to run on everything in
SPAM-learnSPAM and SPAM-learnHAM. While false negatives are easy to handle, I simply move them to
SPAM-learnSPAM, false positives are proving to be trickier. Since the script that I am running to train
SpamAssassin deletes messages after it has processed them, I want to move false positives to the
SPAM-learnHAM folder and also to a HAM folder. 
How would I go about moving a message to two different folders in a macro? Or, copying to one folder and then
moving to another folder?
Thanks for taking a look at this problem,
Andrew

keyboard paste address in compose, To: line

Often, when composing a message, I want to past an address in the To: 
line without using my mouse. However, the usual C-y or C-v keyboard 
commands don't work. Any suggestions?

If I may, a minor secondary question. When I type in an address on the 
To: line, the insertion point is not visible. This is annoying when I 
need to go back to correct a typo. I don't know where I am so that I 
can do a DEL or type at the right place. Can I change this behavior?

Entirely dependent on your terminal program, not Mutt. Mutt
doesn't know you're running in a graphical environment.

If you say what terminal program you're using, or what's
available to you, people may be able to help.

Probably terminal program dependent as well.

Selecting INBOX...gdbm fatal: lseek error

Subject says it all.  Debian Sid. I have purged and reinstalled
everything except my .muttrc file, which works under Lenny and Squeeze.

Any ideas?

After reviewing my post I saw this. And decided to try rm -r .mutt which
worked like a charm.

I still have no idea the why behind this. Could someone fill me in?

What terminal are you running mutt in?

How do you select the address you want to paste?

Where are you copying from - same mutt session, an address book running 
in another terminal?

Are you running a "Desktop environment"?

I run mutt under gnu/screen, a terminal multiplexer that provides a 
powerful copy/paste mechanism between "windows".

Does not happen here in an xterm.

If the "To:" line is at the bottom of the screen, I have seen something 
similar on the linux (framebuffer) console. In the case of a bash shell,

Here's an idea.  Mutt has a 'query_command' variable (see the mutt
manual) that's intended to allow the user to query an external
database of addresses.  It's normally invoked by typing Ctrl-T while
entering an address at the To: or other address prompt.  You could
set this variable to "xclip -o" (I'm not sure about the options)
where xclip is a command-line program for accessing the X clipboard.

If you're already using 'query_command' to access an address
database, you could simply write a wrapper that would do something
like integrate the clipboard output with the other address choices,
or recognize an empty address line or special character on the
address line as a trigger to use xclip instead of the database.

I believe this is a terminal issue.

S/MIME recipient address/key selection

I've been wrestling with this for a while, and I'm finally at the point
where I think I need help.

I've got a working S/MIME setup with mutt, and everything's great except
when it comes to selecting the right key to use when S/MIME kicks in.

For example, I have two keys: one for patrick.morris <at> hp.com and another
for anotheraddress <at> somewhereelse.com. When encrypted mail comes in to
anotheraddress <at> somewhereelse.com, what I'd really like (and what I could
swear I've had before) is for mutt to use the key that matches that
email, but it doesn't even seem to look at the "To:" address.

Instead, I get something more like the following:

Enter keyID for pmorris <at> myhostname.mydomain.com:

The above is an example... what I get is the FQDN of my local machine,
which does not appear anywhere in the email message itself.

Below are my S/MIME config settings, which I'm using on Mutt 1.5.20
(2009-06-14, Gentoo 1.5.20-r4):

set smime_is_default
set smime_timeout=7200
set smime_ask_cert_label

set smime_default_key="cf8014d7.0"      # my KeyID
unset smime_decrypt_use_default_key

set smime_ca_location="/etc/ssl/certs"

Mail index page lines in X window (was Re: Associating..."mbox" in Firefox)

It may interest readers of this list to know that I was able to solve
this problem by downloading and installing rxvt, then modifying mbox.bat
to execute:

    ============================================================
    C:\Cygwin\bin\rxvt.exe -fn courier -fg Black -bg Wheat -sr -e E:\mbox.sh "%1"
    ============================================================

This works great - I can open mbox files with mutt by clicking
on them in Firefox.

However, now I have a different (though minor) problem, which
may in fact be more closely related to mutt than my original
question:

When I call up mutt, the first mail line covers the help line, like this:
