[Bug 105736] Re: mutt - TLS packet with unexpected length

[Luis Lezcano Airaldi]

Just for the record: using the package "mutt-patched" seems to solve the
issue. It depends on gnutls too, so this seems more like a bug on mutt
itself.

Title:
  mutt - TLS packet with unexpected length

Status in Gnutls - GNU Transport Layer Security Library:
  Confirmed
Status in “gnutls26” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  http://www.mail-archive.com/mutt-users@mutt.org/msg32520.html

  I use mutt on Feisty (ubuntu). When connecting to gmail using pops,
  mutt connects to the server and asks my password. After I enter it, I
  see the following error message:

  tls_socket_read (A TLS packet with unexpected length was received.)

  
  I googled a bit and saw that it is GNUTLS which causes the problem and rebuilding mutt with openssl solves the problem. Is there any way other than building mutt from source?


  I have replicated this in the most current fiesty version of mutt
  (1.5.13-1ubuntu1).
