I use tin here (localhost fed from gmane) and it seems his message was an
encoded blob, which I could only see by hitting ctrl-h to view the raw
message and its headers:

 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=WINDOWS-1252
 Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
 Content-Disposition: inline

 QmVmb3JlIEkgZ28gYW55IGZ1cnRoZXIsIHllcywgSSBuZWVkIGJvb3RzcGxhc2g6IE15IGNvbXB1

Mutt probably saw "Content-Disposition: inline" and acted appropriately.
