Hardly mysterious... header caching isn't turned on by default, so if 
it's enabled, YOU enabled it.

Essentially, by deleting it and relaunching mutt.

You can't do it without exiting mutt, BUT there's a better way to edit 
messages. Edit the message FROM WITHIN MUTT (i.e. with the 
<edit-message> function, which is bound to the "e" key by default). 
Mutt will launch your $editor for editing the message. When you do it 
that way, mutt knows that the contents of the message changed and need 
to be re-parsed.
