There's a patch called "blank-line.patch" at
http://www.murkworks.to/blank-line.patch, it was linked from the
mutt.org links page.  It may or may not do what you want, there's
no documentation...

It's indeed a feature, not a bug.  Mutt tries it best to keep itself in
synch of mail folders are edited by something else.

If you know you're browsing the same mail folder from two instances, the
% key is handy (toggles write folder on exit off/on).  If you don't
write the changes out then there's nothing to synch for the other
instance of Mutt.
