Jed loads many *.sl files (modes/modules) only on demand. Seems like an
error in a mode file that gets loaded in case you start from mutt. 

What happens, if you start as standalone and then load the file you
wanted to see from mutt? What mode is shown on the buffer-info line?

You could also try to set 

%%% debug information
_debug_info = 1;
_traceback=1;

in your .jedrc and when the error occured have a look at the buffer
*traceback* and see if you can gain wisdom from there.

Once you found out the foulty file, you can load it to jed and do M-x
evalbuffer: the cursor will stay at the line where jed detected the error.

PS: I send you a cc, as I am not sure whether you are on the new jed list.
