Since JED 0.99-17 comes with a mail-mode called mailedit mode, we
should probably just let the user decide.  BTW in the wildcard module
(http://www.cheesit.com/downloads/slang/slwildcard) I have a demo script
called wc_hook.sl that can do this with two lines:

add_mode_for_wildcard("mail", "SLRN*");
add_mode_for_wildcard("mail", "mutt-*");

With the highlighting in email.sl you mean?  It works fine here, they
are highlighted as keywords, unless you expected something else?
BTW the DFA highlighting has the disadvantage that UTF-8 characters
become unreadable.  So maybe the highlighting scheme of mailedit mode
is better.
