The man page for mutt has for the -a option:

       -a file [...]
              Attach  a file to your message using MIME.  When attaching single 
or multiple files, separating filenames and recipient addresses with "--" is 
mandatory, e.g.
              mutt -a image.jpg -- addr1 or mutt -a img.jpg *.png -- addr1 
addr2.  The -a option must be placed at the end of command line options.

so it would appear the double dash '--' is mandatory, and is working as
designed.
