I'm suffering from the same problem.  Thanks for letting me
know about this feature.  I downloaded the latest developer
release from mutt.org, which is 1.5.10i, installed it,
and added a "set header_cache" to my muttrc start-up file.
However I get the error

Error in /home/volcheck/.mutt/muttrc, line 23: header_cache: unknown variable

I looked through the documentation, and setting this variable
was the only thing relevant that I found.  Is there more that
I need to do?  And where did you find 1.5.11 ?  

Thanks,

--Emil
