Been there, done it, fixed it. Try the following recipe in your 
.procmailrc if you use procmail. If you don't, consider doing it ;)


# Make old style PGP readable for Mutt:
#
:0
* !^Content-Type: message/
* !^Content-Type: multipart/
* !^Content-Type: application/pgp
{
        :0 fBw
        * ^-----BEGIN PGP MESSAGE-----
        * ^-----END PGP MESSAGE-----
        | formail -i "Content-Type: application/pgp; format=text; 
x-action=encrypt"

        :0 fBw
        * ^-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
        * ^-----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----
        * ^-----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
        | formail -i "Content-Type: application/pgp; format=text; 
x-action=sign"
}

:0 fBw
* ^-----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----
* ^-----END PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----
| formail -i "Content-Type: application/pgp-keys; format=text;"



Have fun :)
