% Hello

% Since I often find myself hitting ^C (instead of ^G) to cancel commands

% that function.

Although I find myself doing the same thing occasionally, I haven't
looked into rebinding it, so I don't know of how much use this will be.

IIRC, however, your terminal settings (use stty to see) decide that ^C is
the interrupt character and so your shell grabs the command before it
even gets to mutt.  You'll need to first change your shell with something
like

  stty intr ^G

(yes, I believe you can use ^ + G as above rather than having to enter
the literal character) to free up ^C to get passed through to mutt.
