Please somebody correct me, mutt uses the 'folder' variable which points to the root of your mailboxes. Which mailbox type do you use, btw? According to what I know from your mails, make sure to set folder = '~/mail' Later on, you can use '=' which expands to that path, e.g.: folder-hook FreeBSD$ push 'T~d>5d<enter>;s=incoming/os/bsd/FreeBSD-OLD<enter> will save to a folder in ~/mail/incoming/os/bsd/FreeBSD-OLD Also make sure that the folder already exists, otherwise mutt will ask to create it. Additional remark: The tagged and saved mails are not purged immediately from you FreeBSD mailbox. They are marked with D and will be purged as soon as you save the mailbox. Cheers, -- Bastian
