I'm no expert, but I'm pretty sure you need the following in your .muttrc file in order to access a gmail account via IMAP:
set folder = "imaps://imap.gmail.com:993" set spoolfile = "+INBOX" set postponed="+[Gmail]/Drafts" set header_cache= /home/dale/.mutt/cache/headers set message_cachedir= /home/dale/.mutt/cache/bodies set certificate_file= /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt This is some of the other stuff in my .muttrc file that might be useful. I have a tendency to be paranoid... something I've cultivated deliberately. set move = no set sort=threads set signature=.signature #paranoid delusional encryption stuff... also check on the use of Steghide set pgp_decode_command="gpg %?p?--passphrase-fd 0? --no-verbose --batch --output - %f" set pgp_verify_command="gpg --no-verbose --batch --output - --verify %s %f" set pgp_decrypt_command="gpg --passphrase-fd 0 --no-verbose --batch --output - %f" set pgp_sign_command="gpg --no-verbose --batch --output - --passphrase-fd 0 --armor --detach-sign --textmode %?a?-u %a? %f" set pgp_clearsign_command="gpg --no-verbose --batch --output - --passphrase-fd 0 --armor --textmode --clearsign %?a?-u %a? %f" set pgp_encrypt_only_command="pgpewrap gpg --batch --quiet --no-verbose --output - --encrypt --textmode --armor --always-trust --encrypt-to 0xC9C40C31 -- -r %r -- %f" set pgp_encrypt_sign_command="pgpewrap gpg --passphrase-fd 0 --batch --quiet --no-verbose --textmode --output - --encrypt --sign %?a?-u %a? --armor --always-trust --encrypt-to 0xC9C40C31 -- -r %r -- %f" set pgp_import_command="gpg --no-verbose --import -v %f" set pgp_export_command="gpg --no-verbose --export --armor %r" set pgp_verify_key_command="gpg --no-verbose --batch --fingerprint --check-sigs %r" set pgp_list_pubring_command="gpg --no-verbose --batch --with-colons --list-keys %r" set pgp_list_secring_command="gpg --no-verbose --batch --with-colons --list-secret-keys %r" set pgp_autosign=yes set pgp_sign_as=daler...@gmail.com set pgp_replyencrypt=yes set pgp_timeout=1800 set pgp_good_sign="^gpg: Good signature from" #for html messages auto_view text/html #macros macro pager \cb <pipe-entry>'urlview'<enter> 'Follow links with urlview' #cosmetics #---- Mutt Colors for Black Background ------- #color hdrdefault blue black #color quoted blue black #color signature blue black #color attachment red black #color message brightred black #color error brightred black #color indicator black red #color status brightgreen blue #color tree white black #color normal white black #color markers red black #color search white black #color tilde brightmagenta black #color index blue black ~F #color index red black "~N|~O" #addressbook #subscriptions subscribe mutt-users subscribe newtontalk subscribe newnug -- "Nothing is ever so bad that it couldn't be worse, and if it could be worse than it is, then maybe its not so bad!"
