Here\u2019s how to do it:\n\n---\n\n### \ud83d\udce5 Move a message (index-view or pager)\n\n1. Navigate to the message you want to move in the index or pager view.\n2. Press `s` (this invokes **<save-message>**) to save the message to another mailbox/folder. You\u2019ll be prompted to enter the destination folder.  \n   ([realcaptainsolaris.github.io](https://realcaptainsolaris.github.io/redbook/linuxbook/neomutt/?utm_source=openai))\n\n3. Then mark the original message for deletion:\n   - Press `d` to mark the message for deletion.  \n     ([realcaptainsolaris.github.io](https://realcaptainsolaris.github.io/redbook/linuxbook/neomutt/?utm_source=openai))\n   - To commit the deletion, press `$` to sync the mailbox or quit the folder/session (NeoMutt removes messages marked for deletion).  \n     ([neomutt.org](https://neomutt.org/guide/gettingstarted.html?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n### \ud83d\udd00 Move using the `<move-message>` function/keybinding\n\nSome NeoMutt setups or configs (including ones using helper scripts or macros) define a direct \u201cmove\u201d binding (for example pressing `M`) that combines saving to the target folder and deleting from the current one (i.e. copies + deletes).  \n\n- You might see in your config or key-bindings something like `M` \u2192 `<move-message>` or a macro that wraps `s + delete`.  \n  ([marbs.kuchta.dev](https://marbs.kuchta.dev/neomutt/?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\nIf you tell me your NeoMutt version or share your `.neomuttrc`, I can help you find or define a more direct \u201cmove\u201d key binding tailored to your setup."

        "content": "In `mutt` (and NeoMutt), the configuration line:\n\n```\nset move = no\n```\n\nin the `.muttrc` (or `neomuttrc`) file controls whether *read messages* from your `INBOX` are automatically moved to another mailbox (`mbox`) upon exiting `INBOX`.\n\n---\n\n### What \u201cset move = no\u201d does\n\n- **Default behavior when `move` is enabled**: Every time you leave the `INBOX`, mutt moves all *read* messages to your `mbox` mailbox. This helps keep your `INBOX` tidy, usually leaving only unread or new messages in it. ([baptiste-wicht.com](https://baptiste-wicht.com/posts/2014/07/a-mutt-journey-my-mutt-configuration.html?utm_source=openai))  \n- **When \u201cset move = no\u201d**: mutt will *not* move read messages automatically when leaving `INBOX`. All your messages\u2014read or unread\u2014stay in `INBOX` until you explicitly move them. This gives you manual control over message organization. ([baptiste-wicht.com](https://baptiste-wicht.com/posts/2014/07/a-mutt-journey-my-mutt-configuration.html?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n### Why you might want to use it\n\n- You like to review all messages in one place and move important ones later.\n- You rely on server-side sorting or IMAP and don\u2019t want mutt doing automatic moves.\n- You prefer fewer automated actions in case of mistakes or unintended mailbox clutter.\n\n---\n\nIf you want, I can also show how to change this setting, or how to simulate the \u201cmove on exit\u201d behavior in NeoMutt if `set move = no` is set."
