FWIW, Mutt against Gmail works nicely here on a Debian 10 Linux box. 
Here are all relevant Gmail lines in my `~/.muttrc`:

    set imap_user=usern...@gmail.com
    set folder=imaps://imap.gmail.com/
    set imap_pass=`cat ~/.mutt-gmail`
    mailboxes = +INBOX
    set spoolfile = +INBOX
    set record="+[Google Mail]/Sent Mail"
    set postponed="+[Google Mail]/Drafts"

`~/.mutt-gmail` is a file with a 16-character "app password" generated 
on the Google Accounts page.

Using Mutt 1.10.1 (2018-07-13). Yes, it's kinda old and I've tried to 
compile a newer Mutt, but modern Mutts won't work properly with Gmail. 
When I send to my Gmail address, the mail doesn't appear in my inbox, 
only in Sent. According to `git bisect` that change happened around 
version 1.12.1 . Haven't been able to pinpoint where it happens because 
the results vary, so I'll come back to that in another thread when I 
have more info, I won't hijack this thread about that.

Peace and sunshine,
