Good for you if it works!
I have the feeling that unfortunately the root cause of the initial
problem (it works with bsd-mailx but still fails with mailutils,
correct?) remains a mystery though.
Maybe you would like to help investigating the issue, in which case we
could discover and fix a bug, so that the issue doesn't hit anybody else
in the future, which is good for the community. If you would like to do
that, there are things we can do to investigate, such as enabling msmtp
logging with:
logfile -
Which would allow to see the actual error message. See
https://marlam.de/msmtp/msmtp.html#Logging
But don't feel obliged to do that. It's OK. I have updated the wiki
page with your inputs anyway.
Thanks!
