search /usr/share/doc/packages/mutt/manual.txt.gz

for save-hook

save-hook [!]pattern filename
        When a message matches pattern, the default file name when 
        saving it will be the given filename.
              
note:  it is important to set a default to be used when the
present pattern does not fit.
