Could not copy message

  Google searching found other people with the same problem, only with
signed messages.  There was speculation about mutt and gpg not working
together well, but no solutions specified.  I came up with a rather
heavy-handed solution.

  I originally had the "gpg" USE flag enabled for mail-client/mutt in
package.use.  Setting "-gpg" for mutt, and rebuilding "solves the
problem", at the cost of removing gpg functionality.  Just a heads up in
case anybody else runs into the same problem.
