% I have search pretty far. Maybe I'm blind. But how do I save emails
% to a default box as a choice w/ the "s" button? And what do I have
Let's see, here... You have a bunch of messages, and you want them to
all be saved to some mailbox, like =stuff (file 'stuff' in your Mail
directory), right? In that case, since mutt defaults to saving mail
from some user foo in =foo, you'll have to create a default save hook.
Do this with something like
save-hook . =stuff
(because '.' matches all patterns of at least one character).
Now, if you just want mutt to provide a default choice for a message
you're saving, it will do that; it saves in a mailbox named from that
person's email address (like =foo_a for your example below).
% to do if I get a message from a person like "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" and I always
% wanna save those messages (If I wanna save them) in mailbox =foo?
For this, you'll want to create a save-hook that redefines where to
save just for this case, like
save-hook [EMAIL PROTECTED] =foo
or such.

HTH; take another look at save-hook, rather than send-hook or
fcc-hook, and see if things are any clearer.
