Or use this setting in your .muttrc :
set pop_delete
This will delete the messages on your pop server
as you retrieve them.

Use fetchmail to download mails then ...
and use this in your .fetchmailrc
defaults
forcecr
poll your.pop.server.com with proto pop3
user foo with password *****
keep
That is much better than using mutt's pop support
