My muttrc has the following lines for my gmail:
account-hook 'imaps://roy.aurko@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/' "\
set imap_user="roy.aurko@xxxxxxxxx" imap_pass=$my_gpass "
set folder="imaps://roy.aurko@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
mailboxes =INBOX =[Gmail]/Drafts =[Gmail]/'Sent Mail' =[Gmail]/Spam
folder-hook 'imaps://roy.aurko@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx:993' " \
set folder=imaps://roy.aurko@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ \
postponed=+[Gmail]/Drafts \
record=+[Gmail]/'Sent Mail' \
smtp_url=smtps://smtp.gmail.com:587 \
smtp_pass=$my_gpass \
from='aurko <roy.aurko@xxxxxxxxx> ' \
set ssl_force_tls = yes \
realname='Aurko Roy' "
I tried with your config, but I get the same error. I doubt this is a mutt
issue, since the openssl handshake is failing and mutt cannot connect to
imap without it. On a side note I tried using gnutls+emacs for sending mail
from my gmail account and that works fine. So I'm wondering if mutt can be
set to use gnutls instead of openssl?
