You specify user and password, but msmtp chooses the GSSAPI authentication method, which is based on something else. The problem here is that msmtp should choose a traditional user/password authentication method, not GSSAPI. The workaround therefore is to choose a suitable method yourself, in your case probably --auth=login (btw, an SMTP server that only supports GSSAPI, NTLM, and LOGIN could be considered problematic). Probably msmtp should never choose GSSAPI automatically, the user should always request it manually. I will apply a patch to that effect shortly. At one time, I added support for GSSAPI to msmtp just for completeness reasons and to learn about the different methods. I even managed to set up a test server that handles this kind of thing. But now I think it is mostly useless, I never heard of anyone actually using this. It seems messy and overcomplicated and nearly impossible to setup up correctly or debug. Maybe things have improved, but I doubt it. Does someone here have experiences with GSSAPI?
