Got it Gordon! I can connect now.
Of all the .muttrc files I viewed none had this format for spoolfile.
set spoolfile = {mail.myserver.com/ssl}INBOX
Now, to find the proper settings for set folder and figure out how to
switch folders. With .mailfiter I receive mail in various folders under
INBOX.foldername.
No one seems to use this format for the spoolfile variable. Found the
solution in the mutt FAQ of all places;)
Notes:
As for Garys post, I viewed that .muttrc config you suggested and it is
very complex to say the least. Also, it is setup move the mail in the
Maildir to ~/Mail which I do not want... Very nice setup though if you
want to move your mail out of the IMAP namespace and into a mutt folder
on a workstation.
