I've the same problem and no solution. But it's strange that the
error doesn't occur on every system I use.
Two examples with no personal and the same global config file:

1.) debian woody with mutt from backports.org:
    it works.
    Mutt 1.5.5.1i (2003-11-05)
    System: Linux 2.6.3 (i686) [using ncurses 5.2] [using libidn
    0.3.4 (compiled with 0.3.4)]

2.) debian sid:
    it does not work.
    Mutt 1.5.5.1+cvs20040105i (2003-11-05)
    System: Linux 2.6.3 (i686) [using ncurses 5.3] [using libidn
    0.4.1 (compiled with 0.3.4)]

It's not the way mutt saves the certificates: I tried to use the one
from the working system on the one that does not - makes no difference.

Any ideas? Tell me if you need more information.
Could it have something to do with a different version of a library?
If I remember correctly on pure debian woody it worked and on pure
sarge it did not.
