I have configured SASL and SMTP support in ports/mail/mutt; the only
problem I see can be fixed by:

# diff work/mutt-1.5.21/Makefile work/mutt-1.5.21/Makefile.generated
373c373
< MUTTLIBS =  -lncursesw -ltinfow -lssl -lcrypto -lz -lsasl2 
---
> MUTTLIBS =  -lncursesw -lssl -lcrypto -lz -lsasl2

This is on an i386 with kernel and ports from SVN around ~1st of
October.
