You could do this with a macro, but it sounds like you really want to
save (s) the messages instead of copy them. Save saves the messages
to another folder (mutt will guess where based on the address +
prompt, or you can supply save-hooks) and marks them as deleted in the
current folder.
If you use compressed folders, you will want a macro like this
instead:
macro index "z" "s\t"
macro pager "z" "s\t"
to make mutt tack on the .gz or .bz2 extension, if any.
