Hmm, I'm certainly willing to test that out, but a couple of hurdles:

- I don't seem to have /usr/lib/libsasl2.2.dylib (I can't find any libsasl2* in /usr)
- Assuming I did have an alternate version of libsasl2 available, how would I link to that library specifically when building mutt?

I do have the following MacPorts installed versions available:

/opt/local/lib/libsasl2.3.dylib
/opt/local/lib/libsasl2.dylib

Also using MacOS 11.1, if that helps
