I recall, vaguely, that running a command remotely in this way causes
SSH to manhandle your STDIO filehandles in such a way that some (most?
all?) interactive programs will not work.
Pine gives a very useful error when you try to do:
ssh server pine
----
Can't access terminal or input is not a terminal. Redirection of
standard input is not allowed. For example "pine < file" doesn't work.
----
My guess is that mutt sees that it has no "terminal" and exits
immediately.
