This won't work, because if you don't supply a regexp with a Mutt
pattern operator, the $default_hook gets used -- which will match
the given pattern agains the From header, if the message is not sent
by you (as determined by $alternatives), or the To/Cc headers, if the
message is from you.

So the above regexp you showed will match:

  From: mutt-users
  To: (any address)

or

  From: (you)
  To: mutt-users

The mutt-users list emails are obviously never sent by "mutt-users",
so that's why the save-hook only works for emails you've sent yourself
to the list.


You may want to do something like this instead:

  save-hook "~C mutt-users" =Mutt-users

(there's probably better ways to match that, eg. the Sender header...)

For more info, please consult the manual section on save-hooks, the
message matching section, and the $default_hook description.


Hope this helps,
Mikko
