Indeed the manual is a little sparse on the subject:), but taking into
account that mutt is so wonderfull, I think you may find the following
to work:

   macro pager - "delete-thread; exit"

let me try...no good...reading some in the fine manual...aha
macro expects keysequences, no functions. try again:

   macro pager - ':exec delete-thread; exec exit'\n

yep this works. Mind the trailing \n, needed to persuede mutt to doit.
