Excess status when sending from cmdline using smtp



I don't have time at the moment to investigate, but wanted to put this
on file.  I've started using builtin SMTP just recently.  I find that
when I send a message using mutt from the command line, I get a lot of
status text on the terminal:

        $ mutt -s test -a attachment.rtf recipient@xxxxxxxxxxx <message
        Looking up localhost...
        Connecting to localhost...
        Sending message... 10K/139K
        Sending message... 20K/139K
        Sending message... 30K/139K
        Sending message... 40K/139K
        Sending message... 50K/139K
        Sending message... 60K/139K
        Sending message... 70K/139K
        Sending message... 80K/139K
        Sending message... 90K/139K
        Sending message... 100K/139K
        Sending message... 110K/139K
        Sending message... 120K/139K
        Sending message... 130K/139K

$smtp_url=smtp://localhost/ in this case.

It's not necessarily bad, but I'm not sure it's intended either.  Just
wanted to mention.
