You likely need to recompile mutt with more options,
e.g. ./configure --prefix /usr/local/mutt --enable-pop --enable-imap

Then, the command would be:
/usr/local/mutt/bin/mutt -f imap://IMAPSERVERHOSTNAME

In my ~/.muttrc, I find myself doing:
set imap_user YOURUSERNAMEONYOURIMAPACCOUNT

Note that I have not been able to get RedHat's stock mutt RPMs to do imap.
