The dependencies for mutt are libc6 (>= 2.6-1), libgdbm3, libgnutls13 (>=
1.6.3-0), libidn11 (>= 0.5.18), libncursesw5 (>= 5.6), libsasl2-2.  I got
this from 'apt-cache show mutt'.

Then you need the appropriate '-dev' packages as well as 'build-essential'.

I suggest that you get the Debian source package (apt-get source mutt) and
install the build dependencies with 'apt-get build-dep mutt'. You will also
need to do 'apt-get build-essential'.  Then run 
'./configure --prefix=$HOME/bin' (or wherever you want to put it) in the 
unpacked source directory.  Then run 'make install'.
