OK, the problem is narrowed down.
the account is correct. But its not matching the .msmtprc section.
Instead it is dropping through to the default e.g
,----
| account abc
| user [EMAIL PROTECTED]
| password abc123
|
| account rgr
| user [EMAIL PROTECTED]
| password rgr123
|
| account default : rgr
`----
in this case if the "from" is logged using message in the multi-smtp
function then message correctly reports that account "abc" was selected
into variable account. But the actual user & password picked up for the
smtp chat with the gmail servers is that of rgr above : the default
account.
I have latest msmtp 1.4.13.
This then makes me think there is indeed a problem with
(setq message-sendmail-extra-arguments (list "-a" account))
But examining it tells me
message-sendmail-extra-arguments's value is ("-a" "abc")
Is this correct? Has something changed here?
So what else can I do to debug? I am dreading this being something so
obvious with my config file.
