Unfortunatly this breaks my configuration, that uses an ssh tunnels to
connect to the imap server ie :

account-hook imaps://imap.herrb.eu 'set tunnel="ssh -q imap.herrb.eu 
/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap"'

mutt exits with 'Encrypted connection unavailable'.

I've not seen any mention of 'set tunnel' beeing deprecated or broken
in mutt's release notes.

I guess it is bound to the MITM security issue. Wondering if this kind
of setup is vulnerable, or if it's a false positive.

I'm back to typing a password to read my mail for now...
