There is a good manual there (or 'man muttrc' for just the reference
section). You need to set pop_host, pop_user, and pop_pass (or
something like that).
I recommend just using fetchmail intstead and having exim or procmail
sort the mail into folders for you. The advantage of using
fetchmail+exim/procmail is that you can switch mailers all you want
and are not dependent on a given mailer's POP/IMAP and filter/sort
capabilities. All they need is the ability to read a local folder.
Also note the "set sort=threads" option.
I highly recommend mutt, it's what I use :-).
