To the best of my knowledge this isn't possible in mutt. However some
terminals have an internal border setting such as rxvt and xterm. Try this with
rxvt:

$ rxvt -b 10 &

This will set the internal border to be 10 pixels--not just the left
margin but the top, bottom, and right margins as well. There is also a
resource setting for the ~/.Xdefaults file, but this is getting
off-topic. 'man rxvt|xterm' for more info. 

HTH,
