I have the same problem (although I use BincIMAP). It's a problem with the imap implementation in mutt, and unfortunately the people who know enough to fix it don't seem to care. It was filed as a bug via Debian two years ago (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=163616) which was then forwarded to the Mutt developers, but, as I said, they don't seem to care. ~Kyle -- Liberty means responsibility.
