How do you "directly send" without using SMTP?
with the default sending mechanism that came with it before I configured
SMTP variables
I believe the default is to use the "sendmail" command to submit the
message to the local mail delivery system. (But it sounds like the
local delivery system is unable to actually send the outgoing message,
presumably because it is trying to use the smtp port in its delivery
attempts, too.)
note that I can use the same SMTP configuration in thunderbird, icedove
and agent
If those programs are able to send outgoing email successfully, check
their configuration carefully. Most likely they are configured to use
the "submission" port (587) instead of the "smtp" port (25) (and your
ISP allows traffic to the former but not the latter).

Thanks, got a routing error with port 587, pressed q a lot of times than
cancelled the terminal because I want to start over and see any
progression of messages and copy them besides just the routing error,
now regardless of many times I switch the port my ,muttrc back and forth
can't get the routing error to pop up, same with no port
might not have a fully qualified domain name set up in my /etc/hosts and
/etc/hostname , I recall a good Ubuntu Forums guide for this but during
reconfigs didn't save the link, I'll look around
Thanks again,
