I think it's better to leave smtp_authenticators unset, unless you have 
a specific reason to set it.

There was a thread a couple weeks ago about the same issue on MacOS: 
http://lists.mutt.org/pipermail/mutt-users/Week-of-Mon-20210118/002347.html

The SMTP connector relies on SASL entirely for authentication.  It 
sounded like there was an issue with the MacOS SASL libraries.  Perhaps 
that thread might help, or someone on that thread has more information 
about the problem now.
