I tried my best to not give a clueless advice this time, so before suggesting to omit the user@ part from smtp_url I studied the mutt-1.5.20/smtp.c source: if (conn->account.flags & M_ACCT_USER) { if (!mutt_bit_isset (Capabilities, AUTH)) { mutt_error (_("SMTP server does not support authentication")); mutt_sleep (1); return -1; } #ifdef USE_SASL if (!(conn->account.flags & M_ACCT_PASS) && option (OPTNOCURSES)) { mutt_error (_("Interactive SMTP authentication not supported")); mutt_sleep (1); return -1; } return smtp_auth (conn); #else mutt_error (_("SMTP authentication requires SASL")); mutt_sleep (1); return -1; #endif /* USE_SASL */ } I concluded that mutt omits SMTP authentication if and only if M_ACCT_USER is missing from account.flags (user@ part missing from smtp_url). -- With best regards, xrgtn
