I am trying to get my gmail to work with mutt but keep getting this error: "SSL failed: I/O error".
Does anybody have a clue what could be the problem?
What does your muttrc look like? This works for me:
set imap_user=your-username set imap_pass=your-password set folder=imaps://imap.gmail.com/ set spoolfile = +INBOX mailboxes = +INBOX set header_cache = ~/.mutt/hcache set postponed = +[Gmail]/Drafts unset imap_passive set imap_keepalive = 300 set mail_check = 120 set sort=threads
jsteel Are you sure to use the correct certificate? Gmail ask for a specific certificate to allow connection, and this should be specified in one of your config file with the <cert_fingerprint> variable.
I have the Thawte's certificates (Thawte_Premium_Server_CA.pem, Thawte_Server_CA.pem) in my /etc/ssl/certs/. Do I need some other certificates to connect? I am not aware of the <cert_fingerprint> variable in the config file. Could you elaborate more on that?
