That issue is related to apparmor package
> Does "grep -R mutt /etc/apparmor.d/" return anything?
root@marcelo:~# grep -R mutt /etc/apparmor.d/
/etc/apparmor.d/abstractions/wayland: owner
/run/user/*/{mesa,mutter,sdl,wayland-cursor,weston,xwayland}-shared-* rw,
/etc/apparmor.d/abstractions/X: owner /run/user/*/.mutter-Xwaylandauth.* r,

After make changes in /etc/apparmor.d/abstractions/private-files, that issue go
alone.
This changes was done:
# systemctl stop apparmor
I need to edit /etc/apparmor.d/abstractions/private-files
# nano /etc/apparmor.d/abstractions/private-files
# privacy violations (don't audit files under $HOME otherwise get a
# lot of false positives when reading contents of directories)
deny @{HOME}/.*history mrwkl,
deny @{HOME}/.fetchmail* mrwkl,
# deny @{HOME}/.mutt** mrwkl,
deny @{HOME}/.viminfo* mrwkl,
deny @{HOME}/.*~ mrwkl,
deny @{HOME}/.*.swp mrwkl,
deny @{HOME}/.*~1~ mrwkl,
deny @{HOME}/.*.bak mrwkl,
and comment the line deny @{HOME}/.mutt** mrwkl,
Need to restart apparmor
# systemctl start apparmor
The issue go alone and all work perfectly!
