I don't call a wait something that happens while I blink. If you use mutt in X, can you tell it what browser to open? Sure Konqueror or Iceweasel will take lots of time but dillo or links won't. I'm assuming that an html email won't need javascript so dillo should be just fine. If you don't care about any images, just have it open lynx in the same window.
