Hi there,

I am trying to convert to using imap(s) with mutt (version 1.4i).
I am running into a few problems which very well may be due to a
misconfiguration on my part. 

1) When I start mutt the following screen comes up (I am using imaps):

======================================================================
q:Exit  ?:Help                                                                  This

-- Mutt: SSL Certificate check                                                  
(r)eject, accept (o)nce
======================================================================

The mail server uses a self-signed certificate.
What I find strange is not having the option "accept for all future seesions".
Thus, everytime I start mutt I have to hit "o" to continue.
Is there a way around this, so that I am not asked again?

2) after hitting "o" and entering my password the inbox opens. But it shows
all messages having a length of 0:

=========================================================================
q:Quit  d:Del  u:Undel  s:Save  m:Mail  r:Reply  g:Group  ?:Help
   1 N + Aug 14 Jon Smith       (   0) Re: PBS hostname question
   2 N + Aug 14 Super-User      (   0) bugaboo.hpc.sfu.ca 08/14/02:09.01 system

...

-*-Mutt: imaps://imap.sfu.ca/INBOX [Msgs:2 New:2]---(reverse-date//date)-(all)-
==============================================================================

Only after I viewed the message I see the real length:

==============================================================================

q:Quit  d:Del  u:Undel  s:Save  m:Mail  r:Reply  g:Group  ?:Help
   1   + Aug 14 Jon Smith       ( 247) Re: PBS hostname question
   2 N + Aug 14 Super-User      (   0) bugaboo.hpc.sfu.ca 08/14/02:09.01 system

==============================================================================

How can I fix this?
In case it matters: the mail server runs Solaris, the problems with the
mutt client appear under Linux and Solaris in the same way.

Thanks for you help in advance!

Cheers,
Martin
