set move=yes
(You want to set that in the global Muttrc file)

That's what "set move=no" does, in practice. As far as I understand
your situation, anyway...

I don't understand what you mean with the "received" folder behaviour?
Do you mean message sorting older within a folder (the message index)?
You can control that with the $sort variable, and like any variables,
you can give it some value in the global Muttrc.
Check the manual for the possible values of $sort, however one of them
is "date-received" which is what I *think* you meant.
You can also easily change the sort order with the "o" key in the
message index when inside Mutt.
Hope this helps,
