^^^^^
In case this means that you're using msmtp, this is an msmtp and
not a mutt question ;-) I seem to remember encountering something
similar when using msmtp though.
>From man msmtp:
--tls-min-dh-prime-bits=[bits]
Set or unset minimum bit size of the Diffie-Hellman (DH) prime. See the
tls_min_dh_prime_bits command below.
[...]
tls_min_dh_prime_bits [bits]
Set or unset the minimum number of Diffie-Hellman (DH) prime bits that
msmtp will accept for
TLS sessions. The default is set by the TLS library and can be selected by
using an empty
argument to this command. Only lower the default (for example to 512 bits)
if there is no
other way to make TLS work with the remote server.
Setting
tls_min_dh_prime_bits 512
in my msmtprc helped me overcome the problem, perhaps the same
holds true for you.
