Hi Robert, 

the current cygwin mutt package "mutt 2.3.0-1" is configured with
"--enable-sidebar" and works in my cygwin environment with "set
sidebar_visible = yes" in my ~/.muttrc.

It seems in your MSYS2 environment there are 2 versions of mutt and
mutt 2.2.16 is compiled without sidebar support. AFAIK mutt cygwin
packages have compiled-in sidebar support.

If your "compiled one in use" has the same error, you may consider 
"--enable-sidebar" in your building process.

Harald
