 Not true.

  6.3.121.  pgp_create_traditional

  Type: quadoption
  Default: no

  This option controls whether Mutt generates old-style PGP encrypted or
  signed messages under certain circumstances.

  Note that PGP/MIME will be used automatically for messages which have
  a character set different from us-ascii, or which consist of more than
  a single MIME part.

  Also note that using the old-style PGP message format is strongly
  deprecated.

 (I don't remember when this was introduced, though.)

 Secondly, mutt also supports checking of traditionally signed email
 (i.e. without conversion).
