Looks like there's a packaging problem - the /usr/lib/sendmail in the MMDF
package is the actual sendmail version instead of the mmdf version (which is a
front end for execmail).

Try telling mutt 'set sendmail=/usr/lib/mail/execmail'.
Or replace /usr/lib/sendmail with one from a 507 box that has MMDF installed.
