no. Expect for coding it. That is what I wanted, too, when I switched
from pine to mutt:

This was long time ago. And currently I am hot unhappy enough with the
save-hook shit to code around it. However, if you have something that
works, let me know. When I read your initial post I thought someone had
implemented it and I just didn't get a heads-up.
