Well, the automatic moving of messages to your received folder is
handled by the 'move' variable.
You could just set it to 'ask-yes', and then you'll be asked when you
want it to happen. Or you can specify a list of folder-hooks that set
it to 'ask-yes' or 'yes' or 'no' according to the folder.
folder-hook . 'set move=ask-yes' # Default
folder-hook funnies 'set move=no'
folder-hook otherfolder 'set move=ask-no'
You get the idea. The important thing to realize is that Mutt examines
ALL the folder-hooks, and runs ALL of them that match. It doesn't try
to pick the "best" match and only run that. It runs them all, if
possible. :)
