This is hardly a FBSD question, and would be handled on the Mutt list, as
its substance is about Mutt configuration. However, here is your answer.

First off, I have different .muttrc files for different IMAP servers, much
easier to customize this way... I then call it .. mutt -F .muttrc2 or some
such. 

Second, using below, you are not using SSL, as you say above.. you need

set ssl_starttls=yes

these are optional

set mail_check=60
set timeout=30
 
and to manage your certs when using SSL, so you do not have to say yes
each time you log on, you need..

set ssl_usesystemcerts=yes
set certificate_file=~/.mutt/certificates

third, you need to list your mailboxes from your IMAP server in your
.muttrc file, then they will show up..

mailboxes =INBOX =INBOX/sent =INBOX/whatever =INBOX/store =INBOX/bsd
