But if all else fails copy+paste should be possible, no?  On
X Windows, dependent on the window manager, you could also
configure mouse actions etc. so then URL selection + X would do it
for you.  If you use a terminal multiplexer like tmux this could
also be doable, mostly what i do.  I do not know whether mutt has
some hook which allows direct start of a browser for a given thing
you see in the pager.

(Btw., a couple of years ago i watched a video of Russ Cox
describing how he works with the Acme editor in Plan9(Port), and
there it shows how efficient mouse copy+paste can be.  It is [1].
Near the end i think he worked a bit.  Btw. the Plan9 Rio terminal
/ rc shell did not even have a history, it is all done via
scrolling, and copy + paste.  Not my thing, but if you can...)
