Look at /usr/share/doc/masqmail/examples.  Pretty much all you need to 
know is in there.  If you still need help after customizing the examples 
and placing them in /etc/masqmail, post back with your questions.

Also, there are manpages for the different masqmail configuration files 
that are of some help in understanding the examples.  See man "masqmail" 
and scroll down to the "SEE ALSO" section.

Mutt should not be effected by the MTA you choose, so you don't need to 
worry about that.
