I have similar macros defined (with the 'y' removed as suggested in a followup).

In this case, the macro is still active since the attachment is viewed with the pager. When I hit 'd' to delete the message, I'm asked if I want to overwrite, append or cancel, but it does not indicate the filename. It turns out it is my trash file. When I overwrite or append, the trash file is no longer a mailbox since it has a message body with no header. Is it possible to avoid this? Details of mutt version follow...
