ssl_starttls unknown variable
Hello! I built mutt after configuring it with ./configure --enable-gpgme --enable-imap --enable-sidebar --enable-smtp --with-gnutls In the muttrc I wanted to set ssl_starttls to yes but as the subject reveals it's an unknown variable to mutt. Can you please help me to fix this error? I used a search engine but couldn't find anything useful.

That's the output: #define USE_SSL 1 /* #undef USE_SSL_GNUTLS */ #define USE_SSL_OPENSSL 1 What does 'mutt -v | grep SSL' output? -USE_SSL_OPENSSL -USE_SSL_GNUTLS -USE_SASL -USE_GSASL -USE_GSS +HAVE_GETADDRINFO

That's the output: #define USE_SSL 1 /* #undef USE_SSL_GNUTLS */ #define USE_SSL_OPENSSL 1 That would indicate it was configured with OpenSSL, and should support $ssl_starttls. However: What does 'mutt -v | grep SSL' output? -USE_SSL_OPENSSL -USE_SSL_GNUTLS -USE_SASL -USE_GSASL -USE_GSS +HAVE_GETADDRINFO That doesn't line up with the build directory configuration. Here, the first two words indicate both OpenSSL and GnuTLS were disabled at build time. Is it possible you are invoking a different mutt binary in your search path? Thanks for asking this! I installed mutt with the package manager before. It seems that that caused the problem. (On a different topic, if you use the built-in SMTP, you'll also want to enable SASL at build time, to support authentication). Thanks for giving me that hint. I don't know what I need and wanted to try mutt by trial and error. Greetings, Christoph
