I do something similar to have mutt mimic Netscape Messenger. From my muttrc:
# (Safely) delete messages
folder-hook . 'macro index d "<delete-message>"'
folder-hook "!$" 'macro index d "<save-message>!.Trash<enter>"'
folder-hook "!.wave4" 'macro index d "<save-message>!.Trash<enter>"'
folder-hook . 'macro pager d "<delete-message>"'
folder-hook "!$" 'macro pager d "<save-message>!.Trash<enter>"'
folder-hook "!.wave4" 'macro pager d "<save-message>!.Trash<enter>"'
folder-hook . 'macro pager D "<delete-message>"'
This changes 'd' to save message in two specific folders
(work-related e-mail). In other folders, 'd' means delete. In the
pager, 'D' is defined as delete universally.
