Running latest Mutt w/o SASL



Hi!

I did a dist-upgrade today and among the things I got is a
version of Mutt that uses the SASL libraries. I use Mutt
to pick up mail from a RedHat 6.2 server running RH's default
version of IMAP (UW, IIRC).
Now, the problem is that I don't have SASL installed on the
RH machine (and don't want to, since I am going to convert it
to Debian as soon as possible). The problem is that Mutt only
tries SASL authentication, although the docs say that it
should fall back to other methods.
It's a real pain in the neck: I am back to reading mail with
Mozilla and I really miss the threading.
Is there a way to tell Mutt to use login authentication?
And if not, is there another mail reader with threading and
IMAP support?

TIA,
j
