Yes, mutt is an MUA, mail user agent, not a MTA, mail transfer agent.
You compose mail within mutt and your configured editor and mutt hands
the mail to your MTA.
Have you configured your MTA? You haven't given much information to
work with. We do not know what version of mutt, what distro and
version, how you are connected, do you send your own mail or relay thru
your provider, are you using sendmail or postfix or exim or what?
Are you trying to use mutt with pop as indicated above?
