Greetings,

I just started using Mutt recently, and I love it.  I do have one 
question though (so far):  I want to tag a bunch of messages (no 
particular pattern) and move them to another message box for storage.  
Right now I haven't even figured out how to move one message, let 
alone more.  I've been copying and deleting but that's getting pretty 
tedious.

Systemic

The term for "moving" in Mutt is "saving".  So to move a single message,
you save it by typing 's'.  To save all the tagged messages, you first
type the tagged-message prefix ';' immediately followed by 's', i.e.,

    ;s
