not sure if this is your problem but it has the same symptoms as I had.
Basically its a sendmail issue which you can fix by installing a program
called ssmtp - have a search at www.freshmeat.net. This can be installed
with 'make install-sendmail' and it acts in sendmails place to send your
mail from mutt and you can use either fetchmail or mutts retreival feature
for getting your email if its a pop account.
I hope this helps.
