I've never used it, but the sysadmins where I work are pretty anal about security (a good thing), and they just enabled POP3 and IMAP mail over SSL on the mail server. PS. Please wrap your lines at 72-ish characters. Hmm. I've seen a lot of mutt users with un-wrapped lines. I would've expected that from a GUI mail reader like Mozilla, but not from a proper mailreader like mutt.
