I think the error message comes from this part of the code;
 (smtpmail-send-command
               process (format "MAIL FROM:<%s>%s%s"
                               envelope-from size-part body-part))

here is some of the edebug output, let me know if there is something
more specific I can provide

Result: (8bitmime (auth gssapi ntlm login) enhancedstatuscodes dsn
(size \20...0))

Result: #<process smtpmail>
 [2 times]
Result: "xx@yy.edu"

Result: " SIZE=373"

Result: ""

Result: "MAIL FROM:<xx@yy.edu> SIZE=373"

error: "Process smtpmail not running"
