This is not my password. Note the escape character as well, as displayed by vim.

The "escape character" is a carriage return, and is part of the line terminator for all IMAP commands sent, so that's okay.

The value after your username should be your actual password, $imap_pass, for the LOGIN authentication type. I've looked at the code again, and tried it myself. At least for me it is that value. Perhaps I'm missing something.

If you enter
  :set ?imap_pass
in mutt do you see your expected password printed out?

Also, you may want to try configuring '--with-sasl' and see if that helps.

As an aside, if you do get it working, you probably also want to add header caching (--enable-hcache).
