The message is inline signed.  There is no indication in the headers 
that the message is signed, so Mutt doesn't know to check the signature 
by default.

Setting $pgp_auto_decode tells Mutt to scan each message just before 
displaying it in the pager (and also when replying, forwarding, or 
editing the message.)

Alternatively, you can manually invoke <check-traditional-pgp>, by 
default bound to Esc-P, in the index and pager.

There isn't an option to automatically scan before displaying in the 
index.  That would greatly slow down opening mailboxes, because each 
message would have to be parsed and scanned.
