To the better of my knowledge, Mutt does not handle links at all. Please
refrain from calling it retarded.

What you describe does not look like a feature of Mutt but the
combination of two configuration options to use external programs, one
to display HTML as text (as I described elsewhere in the thread) and one
to catch URLs in the text, probably urlview (mentioned by somebody
else).

No need to blame Mutt at all.
