If you get shell or [gpg|GPG] errors, be sure that the 'set' lines have no linefeeds where they don't belong. You may need to disable word wrap in your editor (pico/nano word wrap by default - use the '-w' command line argument to disable word wrap).
If/when you upgrade [mutt|Mutt], you will probably want to check your /etc/Muttrc afterwards and see if any of the pgp_encrypt_X lines have been modified.
This should not be a problem though, since you should not have edited the lines in there, but in ~/.muttrc instead. That makes much more sense as well, in case you want to add other users to the system later (or if they already exist). When they send encrypted mail, they will not appreciate it if it is readable by you ;-)

+----
+As an aside, you can also just add the following lines to your ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf file
+
+default-key ABCD1234
+encrypt-to ABCD1234
+
+Replace ABCD1234 with your key ID as described above.
+
+Beware though, that this change will encrypt everything to your own key, not just mails sent from mutt.
