The hook to use is the save-hook unless you also want to save copies of
outbound messages to the same folders based on the same criteria, in
which case you should use the fcc-save-hook instead. Here are some
examples from my .muttrc.
save-hook '~f "bcringely"' +Lists/cringely
save-hook '~f "@comsoc.org"' +comsoc
save-hook '~s "linux today"' +Lists/linuxtoday
Read the manual sections:
3.14. Specify default save filename
3.16. Specify default save filename and default Fcc: mailbox at once
4.2. Patterns
Mutt searches the hook patterns for a match in the same order that the
hooks appear in your .muttrc and stops at the first match, so it is
important to put specific patterns before more general patterns.
