huh?

.fetchmailrc can have:
[]
user xxxxx is mark here
[]
user yyyyy is julie here

to stick mail from xxxx into user account mark and yyyy into julie.

Alternatively, if you don't want separate acounts for work / home, you
can use an exim .forward file to filter and save your home stuff to a 
seperate mailbox file and mutt -f the file. Alternatively...

I have never user fetchmailconf, but perhaps this is limiting you.
.fetchmailrc is trivial to understand anyway...

HTH,
