"%?X?A&-?" is going to print either 'A' or '-'.  I'm assuming you are 
seeing only "-"?

In order to get attachment counting working, you *may* need to define 
some attachment settings.  Take a look at 
<http://www.mutt.org/doc/manual/#attachments> for the details.

However, the default system Muttrc that ships with Mutt does have some 
basic attachment settings already.  These are listed starting about 
halfway down in 
<https://gitlab.com/muttmua/mutt/-/blob/master/doc/Muttrc.head>

You can see the current settings Mutt knows about by running 
":attachments ?" and hit enter.

You may want to check what is installed for your system Muttrc file. 
Perhaps it's missing those settings.
