Hmmm, that's probably because you didn't specify a user. You probably
already know, but it's like this:
set smtp_url="smtp://user@xxxxxxxxxx:587/"

Right, because 'smtps' is a different protocol that expects the
connection to be encrypted from the very beginning (which is not what
SMTP or SUBMISSION (the thing on 587) do).

Hmmm...

Ahh, this might be it. To get 'smtp_authenticators', you have to
compile mutt with SASL support. Without SASL, mutt can't do things
like encode your username and password in the ways that some SMTP
servers demand. Try compiling with SASL (you may have to install the
cyrus-sasl2 libraries first) and see if that doesn't help.
