[arch-general] SSL I/O error with gmail

Hello all,
             I am trying to get my gmail to work with mutt but keep
getting this error: "SSL failed: I/O error". I then tried to connect
to imap.gmail.com with openssl ($openssl s_client -connect
imap.mail.me.com:993 and also $openssl s_client -connect
imap.mail.me.com:993 -CApath /etc/ssl/certs/)
both of which give the following:

CONNECTED(00000003)
140098731194024:error:140790E5:SSL routines:SSL23_WRITE:ssl handshake
failure:s23_lib.c:177:
---
no peer certificate available
---
No client certificate CA names sent
---
SSL handshake has read 0 bytes and written 228 bytes
---
New, (NONE), Cipher is (NONE)
Secure Renegotiation IS NOT supported
Compression: NONE
Expansion: NONE
---

This seems to be a peculiar problem only with gmail as I can
successfully connect to icloud's imap server (imap.mail.me.com)
without any problems.  Does anybody have a clue what could be the
problem?

TIA
