You mean the bar across the top in the mbox listing mode?

I'm not sure there's a way to change what functions are displayed,
though if you bind those functions to another key, the display will
list that instead. (It doesn't deal too well with multi-key
bindings, actually.)

I've had help unset in my .muttrc for quite a while, so I don't even
really remember what's listed there.

It's really just intended to help out complete newcomers... it's
sort of presumed that users will pick up on those functions
promptly.

If you're interested in setting this for perpetual newbie users on
your system, I'm sure this is just an sprintf() somewhere in mutt's
source; changing what's listed in it and recompiling would be trivial.
