Yes. The signed part is still there but the complete email has to be declared
as mixed because there is some text added to the email after the signed part:
Gnupg-users mailing list
Gnupg-users at gnupg.org
http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg
This adds another section to the email - one that is not signed.
KMail shows it as:
multipart/mixed containing:
multipart/signed
plain text quoted inline
detached openPGP sgnature
plain text.
When it leaves your machine, it just has the middle three.
The mailing list manager also adds helpful headers like, what this list is,
how to unsubscribe, how to identify the list in filters, where the archives
are, etc.

Others are using mutt without apparent problems, perhaps there's a
configuration you've changed / omitted?
I'm only just getting used to mutt and haven't used it for mailing lists yet,
others on the list should be able to clarify what's happening in your case.
