I think I'm getting a bit closer on this but am now stuck again. It looks to me like the server is not offering up the certificate for me to accept. I exported the server certificate and the root CA certificate and now have them in my openssl certs directory as well as a certificate file in my mutt directory.
Now I am trying to specify the variable: set ssl_ca_certificates_file='/etc/ssl/certs/[rootCA.pem]' But when I launch mutt I get an error: ssl_ca_certificates_file: unknown variable The only info I can find on this is to recompile mutt with --with-ssl but it is already there as far as I can tell. mutt -v : Mutt 1.5.21 (2010-09-15) Copyright (C) 1996-2009 Michael R.
