Then you will have to "save" to the "trash" folder *or* I believe there
is a patch for "trash", but "trash" is not a built in option for mutt.
I have seen the "trash" patch mentioned, but do not use it and have no
other knowledge of it.

then you might re-assign "d" to a macro which will "save" the message to
the "trash" folder and use "save" to "move" messages to new folders.
note: the save option *moves* a message to the new location and then
*deletes* it from the old location.
*delete* marks a message for deletion which is performed when you
leave that folder or when you "$", save changes to the folder.
