Looks like the problem is that mutt is no longer installed. You'll 
need to re-download the source (from www.mutt.org). Next, you'll need 
to uncompress it, such as with the command `tar -xzvf 
mutt-1.4.2.3.tar.gz`. Then you'll need to configure it; run 
`./configure --help` to get a listing of all the configure options (I 
don't know which ones you'll need), and then run `./configure` with 
all the options you want. Once that's done, run `make && sudo make 
install`. (Sorry, that's not very slow, but it's a pretty open-ended 
question.)
