I tried my best to not give a clueless advice this
time, so before suggesting to omit the user@ part
from smtp_url I studied the mutt-1.5.20/smtp.c
source:
if (conn->account.flags & M_ACCT_USER)
{
if (!mutt_bit_isset (Capabilities, AUTH))
{
mutt_error (_("SMTP server does not support authentication"));
mutt_sleep (1);
return -1;
}
#ifdef USE_SASL
if (!(conn->account.flags & M_ACCT_PASS) && option (OPTNOCURSES))
{
mutt_error (_("Interactive SMTP authentication not supported"));
mutt_sleep (1);
return -1;
}
return smtp_auth (conn);
#else
mutt_error (_("SMTP authentication requires SASL"));
mutt_sleep (1);
return -1;
#endif /* USE_SASL */
}
I concluded that mutt omits SMTP authentication if
and only if M_ACCT_USER is missing from
account.flags (user@ part missing from smtp_url).
