In mutt, you can ignore all headers and unignore the ones you'd like to
see, or ignore certain headers and have the rest unignored by default.
Here's what I have, which ignores all headers, unignores a few, and
specifies the display order.

# message headers
# show the headers I wish to see
ignore *
unignore From: date to cc subject
# and sort them too.
hdr_order Date From: To: Reply-To: Cc: Bcc: Subject:

I don't quite follow. With the top line of help disabled, the message is
read immediately.
