That's by design (but it's a rather uninformative error message).
Encrypted email can only be read by those who have the private key to
decrypt it. In order to read encrypted mail that you send you have to
either 1) encrypt it to yourself as well (you can do this by changing
gpg's configuration, or by adding --encrypt-to with your own PGP key
to all of the mutt encryption commands in your muttrc) or 2) set
fcc_clear, so that sent messages are saved to your Sent box
unencrypted.

set pgp_auto_decode=yes
At this point (i.e. now that you're at the "it'd be more convenient
if..."), I strongly recommend reading through the muttrc man page.
You'll find all *kinds* of interesting and useful settings in there.
