Like so:

macro attach  s '<save-entry><bol>/tmp/<enter><shell-escape> sudo chmod a+r 
/tmp/*<enter>'

The only thing it won't do is pause in the middle to let you finish 
the name of the file you want to save it as.

> </enter></shell-escape>

What are these? Mutt's syntax may look like HTML, but it's not html.

>Is it possible to chain macros themselves?

Yes.

    macro index ,a '<enter-command>do something<enter>'
    macro index ,b '<enter-command>do something else<enter>'
    macro index ,c ',a,b'
