I've just tested with the current snapshot:

$ TZ=UTC ls -l /usr/lib/libssl.so.52.0 /usr/local/bin/mutt
-r--r--r-- 1 root bin 1509824 May 25 06:51 /usr/lib/libssl.so.52.0
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root bin 1318616 May 24 02:11 /usr/local/bin/mutt

Testing with pop3.xtra.co.nz, I don't have an account but a bogus
username is good enough to check that TLS works, so I added this to
the default muttrc

set pop_host=pops://test@pop3.xtra.co.nz/

Run mutt and press G - no TLS failure.
