The problem I believe is not that the hook isn't being called each time,
but rather that when it's called it has the wrong arguments.  The hook
line in the ~/.muttrc file evaluates the output of the `date` command
at startup rather than each time the hook is executed.  I had a similar
problem when I started adding the X-Moon: header.  I first tried this:

	my_hdr X-Moon: `pom`

but noticed that the value of the header wasn't changing over time.  I
played around for a while, and ended up with the following, similar to
the solution Sean mentioned:

	send-hook . 'my_hdr X-Moon: `pom`'

As good as the mutt configuration syntax is, it could be improved.
