Comment:
Sorry but macros are nothing more than a sequence of operations added to
the keyboard buffer. Internally, there is no concept of "being in a
macro".
This means that you can't prefix a macro keybinding with tag-prefix to
have the entire macro executed on each tagged message. tag-prefix always
works on the next individual operation only.
You can turn off the beeping via 'unset beep', or perhaps enable $auto_tag
for the macro, but otherwise can't build a "d" macro that is
indistinguishable from the built-in.
I would suggest posting to mutt-users. They may be able to make
suggestions to help you get something closer to what you want. In the
mean time, I'm marking this as an enhancement.
