You *have* really read the docs?
3.123. mark_old
Type: boolean
Default: yes
Controls whether or not mutt marks new unread messages as old if you
exit a mailbox without reading them. With this option set, the next
time you start mutt, the messages will show up with an "O" next to
them in the index menu, indicating that they are old.
~/.muttrc
unset mark_old # i don't care about whether a message is old
