The only entry in '/etc/postinstall' related to 'mutt' is 'mutt.sh.done' 
which, if I understand things correctly, means that mutt was installed ok.

I did a search on my entire cygwin installation and could not find 
either of the two missing files.  The only place I can find them 
referenced is in 'mutt.lst.gz', which is just what 'cygcheck' uses to 
determine that 'mutt' is incomplete.
