Hello everyone, 

I'm on Debian Jessie and I cannot get mutt to send email. I can receive 
emails and view my inbox in Mutt but I can't send messages. I can send them 
to myself though. I can't send them to another email address. 

When I use mutt to send an email I keep getting this HELO/ELHO error:

SMTP session failed: 501 5.5.4  https://support.google.com/mail/?p=helo 
yg10sm21072351pab.8 - gsmtp

That brings me to this page:
https://support.google.com/mail/answer/6386757?visit_id=1-636100243312716080-1894628512&p=helo&rd=1

I can't figure out how to resolve this issue. My 2 factor is off and I'm 
allowing login from unsecure apps. I'm also trying to use ssmtp instead of 
esmtp but the same thing happens in mutt. 

When i do
$ sudo ssmtp someemail@gmail.com 

the email does actually go through though, but it says from root. 

If anyone has suggestions I would really appreciate it!
Thanks,
Liz
