Thanks Ranjan - that's right.  Remember port 465 uses smtps://

Check your muttrc to make sure you don't have the value specified twice 
or something.  That error message prints out the full value of 
$smtp_url, so somehow Mutt has the value minus the 
'smtps://ionmich@eml.cc@' prefix stored in $smtp_url.

You can also check the value at runtime by typing ':set ?smtp_url' and 
hitting return.
