Yep, Ill do that. I had already downloaded it, but decided not to use
it without getting mutt.el to work first (emacs was not entering
post-mode with it either). post.el is an updated mode
with added features for news reading right? But does it have any added
useful functionality for mail? (I have not gone through it yet)

Nope, what I had was:
(defcustom mutt-file-pattern "mutt-[a-z]+-[0-9]+-[0-9]+\\'"
"*Regular expression which matches Mutt's temporary files."
:type 'string
:group 'mutt)
and lower down:
(unless (assq mutt-file-pattern auto-mode-alist)
(setq auto-mode-alist
(cons (cons mutt-file-pattern 'mutt-mode)
auto-mode-alist)))
Anyway, I have commented it out the latter and added what you have given and it
works fine now :-)

I found only mutt.el (can't remember the URL). Possibly mutt.elc provides
the reg-exp. Incidently, the post.el that I got also does not have the
code you have given.
