I doubt it, but I'm not certain. Also, that will not affect currently
running processes, only newly started ones.

Run the following once (you may need to do it every time you log in):

xrdb -load ~/.Xdefaults

Put the following in a script somewhere:

#!/bin/sh
exec xterm -name mutt -e sh -c 'eval `resize -u`; mutt'

That script will bring up mutt in a new xterm which will use the correct X
resources. The -name flag is the important bit, since it matches the X
resource name.
