I'll be damned (undoubtedly)! In all the searching and reading I've done 
on this subject I never ran across the fact that mutt encryption works 
out of the box. Everything I found required modifying ~/.muttrc. 
After reading /usr/share/doc/mutt/README.Debian I finally ran across a
site that talked about the "p" command to invoke gpg.

All things come to he who reads. Thanks for the pointer.
