In ~/.mew.el, put something like

(setq mew-config-alist
      '(("firstbox"
	 ("user" . "firstusername")
	 ("mail-domain" . "firstmaildomain"))
	("secondbox"
	 ("user" . "secondusername")
	 ("mail-domain" . "secondmaildomain"))
	("thirdbox"
	 ("user" . "thirdusername")
	 ("mail-domain" . "thirdmaildomain"))))

Then hit C-c C-o while editing a mail to set the case value to one of
firstbox, secondbox, thirdbox (you will surely wish to set names more
meaningful to you).

Se the documentation for variable mew-config-alist and function
mew-draft-set-case. There are lots of things you can set.
