Right. And save hook is for when you're saving individual messages,
not for moving read mail, so ignore my previous message.
Your best bet for getting this to work might be something like
set mbox='|formail -s procmail .mutt-procmailrc'
where .mutt-procmailrc has recipes detailing where each message goes.
I don't know if that works though, and I'm not about to test it right
now. I might later.

This'll teach me to try to read the docs and reply about a feature I
don't use (mainly because it doesn't exist) before I'm awake. :-)
