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:

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

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
