Eliana and all, You are correct I'd missed the 'My_server" in the smtp url, but that didn't fix the basic problem.
I've tried every combination of imap smtp sending setups people have reccommended and nothing works. I get either "connection refused" or an apparrent send with no errors wherein the message just doesn't arrive. Should I start a trace or some such of a sending attempt, and if so how do I go about that? Also, is it necessary when upgrading mutt to start with a new copy of the current muttrc file and modify that? or will .rc files that work with a slightly older version work with the latest stable release?
