Of course if you change "imaps" to "imap" in .muttrc it will appear to fix the problem, because you will no longer be using GNU TLS but will be transmitting all information (including your password!) in plaintext. So yes this will make the problem "go away" but it is not a solution.
mutt with GNU TLS appears to work correctly in Precise and Quantal, now. Not sure what changed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/105736 Title: mutt - TLS packet with unexpected length To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnutls/+bug/105736/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
