In addition to what Daniel said about the keybindings, you can configure
mutt to solve some of the other problems with the pager as well.  For
example, to avoid skipping to the next message when you just wanted to
move down a line,

    set pager_stop=yes

You may want to

    set prompt_after=no

so that when you exit vi, mutt returns to the index menu immediately
instead of first prompting you for a command.
