That means that you didn't build mutt with SSL support.

>1.5.17 connects ok.

Probably because you built that one with SSL support. ;)

See the minus?

>My (working) mutt-1.5.17 "mutt -v" is:
[snip]

That's the difference.

>Superficially the IMAP and SSL settings seem to tbe the same to me.

The settings may be the same, but... you didn't build the new mutt 
with SSL support, so the settings won't help.

You'll need to reconfigure and recompile the new mutt (the previous 
configure command you used is at the top of the config.log in the 
source). Reconfigure and build it the same way, but add --with-ssl to 
the set of ./configure arguments. Assuming you have SSL development 
headers installed somewhere configure can find them, that'll get you a 
mutt that will do what you want.
