Your translations were fine; I was able to find it.  I clicked on the
"Run in Terminal" option with mutt "%S" in the program field but that
did not work.  I had to enter "gnome-terminal ... -e mutt %s", with
"Run in Terminal" unchecked to get it to work.  That does not seem like
proper behavior but it is working now so I am happy.

Thanks.
