Ok, I installed msmtp and after a bit of flailing about got it
working.

Part of the flailing included an error message from
mail.eskimo.com that it didn't support authentication.  
So I suppose it's puking when mutt insists.

msmtp has a way to turn that off; does mutt? If it's
smtp_authenticators, what do I put there?
