This is Mutt 1.5.23 (2014-03-12) running on FreeBSD 10.1. Installed with the FreeBSD pkg tool. There isn't much IMAP specific configuration in my .muttrc, except for "set folder" to imaps:// etc. Only thing I found was: unset imap_passive set imap_check_subscribed > > It's very easy to see how many unread mails I have in each mailbox.
