Mutt Save Attachment [SOLVED]

Is there a way to save attachments in Mutt without opening them? This would be helpful when trying to save a 3 MB .doc file, for example.

I have been hitting enter on the attachment and then 's' for save.

Here's what I do to save an attachment using mutt:
Select the message that contains the file, press v, select the attachment, press s, enter the filename for the local copy and press enter.

Odd, doesn't work on my computer. If I hit s after selecting an attachment it brings up a "Search for" prompt.

You can hit "?" while running mutt to get a help screen describing all the keybindings. "s" for save is the default keybinding, and "/" is for search - they can be redefined in .muttrc

Thank you! Turns out I had a macro unknowingly defined.
