After some experimentation I came up with the following:

macro index <F5> "<enter-command>set mbox_type=mbox;set confirmcreate=no;set sort=subject<enter>;sPatches<enter><enter-command>set mbox_type=Maildir; set sort=threads;set confirmcreate=yes<enter>U.<enter>"

Basically you just tag the thread (esc-t) and then hit F5 and it will save it
to a mbox file called "Patches" in your home dir.
