Hmm, the way I always heard it, mutt isn’t very good at IMAP.
Usually among the terminal clients Pine is said to have the best
IMAP code, but I have no idea if any of that is correct since I
don’t use IMAP.

I was asking specifically about the quality of the IMAP
implementation, not the MUA in general. I actually don’t hate
mutt as far that is concerned. And my recent upgrade to 1.5 fixed
a lot of niggles that annoyed me in 1.4 (none of them actively
hateful, excepting the absence of header caching for Maildirs –
which is what got me to upgrade).
