It gets stranger...
I have another system where I think am I supposed to use port 465.
Maybe that's nonsense, I don't know, but I tried:
rm ~/.emacs
emacs -eval '(setq smtpmail-smtp-service 465)'
After going through all the prompting, I ended up with a .emacs
containing:
'(smtpmail-smtp-service 587)
and a ~/.authinfo with a "port 587" entry. Ie, my initial setting for
smtpmail-smtp-service was overwritten.
Maybe smtpmail-query-smtp-server should use something like
(list smtpmail-smtp-service 587) for ports rather than '("smtp" 587).
