When I have a moment I'll send my Gmail enabled muttrc for u to ponder. Imap with Gmail on mutt is seamless ime.
I don't currently use Mutt with Gmail, but one common suggestion is to
use an external program like offlineimap for handling syncing. I
remember hearing that Mutt's IMAP support is not the best.
The guide I followed to get set up initially is Steve Losh's The Homely
Mutt, it's really quite good.

I am about to emerge it with the following USE flags: berkdb, crypt, gdbm, nls, ssl, gpg, imap, mbox, pop, sasl, sidebar, smtp. If anyone feel I should add or remove something from USE, feel free to tell me. Thanks!
