I would guess that this happens on messages where the content is
signed 'inline' (aka traditional) instead of using PGP/MIME. Mutt
doesn't know about these messages until it parses them using the
check-traditional-pgp function. This can be done automatically with
Derek Martin's cool pgp-auto-decode patch [1].

Which means, as you might already know, that mutt knows the message is
signed, but that it hasn't been successfully verified. That's
described in the manual section titled, "Status Flags."
S message is signed, and the signature is succesfully verified
s message is signed
