Can you reproduce the problem using gnutls-cli? It sounds as if you
have a RSA-MD5 signature somewhere in your chain, and the chain is
rejected. Please post output of running gnutls-cli against your server
as suggested earlier in this bug.
If you could quote some error messages from mutt and msmtp, that will
also help -- however, to debug it is best to first try to isolate the
problem using gnutls-cli. If it's not possible to reproduce using
gnutls-cli, I would suggest a mutt/msmtp problem.
