I do not use gpg (yet), as Hall Stevenson asked.  I'm reluctant to post my .muttrc file because of the bandwidth, but will do so if that will help.

Hmm. Do the emails even arrive? How are they getting them: is it
download from POP or IMAP server (in which case see if the email is even
being downloaded) or is it from an Exchange server? (in which case see
if you can track the logs).

Seeing as you mention Eudora is fine, I take it this implies download
from POP/IMAP as Eudora doesn't know Exchange. This I therefore find
really odd: the emails must be arriving, so why doesn't O/OE show them?
Could you see if you can find out whether they're even downloaded?
