What's wrong with doing that?

gpg:
       --encrypt-to name
              Same as --recipient but this one is intended for use in the
              options file and may be used with your own user-id as an
              "encrypt-to-self". These keys are only used when there are other
              recipients given either by use of --recipient or by the asked
              user id.  No trust checking is performed for these user ids and
              even disabled keys can be used.

Maybe if you explain why you need this option in mutt it would help...
