I have this in my muttrc:

  set confirmappend=no
  set confirmcreate=yes

You want the former one. From "man muttrc":

  confirmappend
    Type: boolean
    Default: yes
    When  set, Mutt will prompt for confirmation when appending messages
    to an existing mailbox.

I strongly suspect so.  Practically everyone on sci.physics has a theory that
is far superior to special relativity, general relativity, quantum mechanics
*and* the standard model.  Around here, it's only a small clique of arrogant
young members of the physics establishment who fail to recognize these
revolutionary theories.  I'd explain why, but I have to go finish designing
my faster-than-light vacuum energy perpetual motion telekinetic
aether-powered time machine.    - John Baez
