[msmtp-users] Can't agree on authentication



I just installed msmtp 1.2.4 and am trying to use it to send email
through my domain.  I use mutt and changed the line in .muttrc to read
    set sendmail="/usr/local/bin/msmtp -d"
[previously I used ssmtp through my ISP]  The .msmtprc file is:
    host mail.pheon.com
    from andyd@...13...
    domain pheon.com
    user andyd@...13...
    password *****

When I try to send an email through pheon.com, I get this output:
    msmtp: cannot agree on authentication mechanism
    msmtp: could not send mail (account default from /home/andyd/.msmtprc)
    using account default from /home/andyd/.msmtprc:
    host            = mail.pheon.com
    port            = 25   
    domain          = localhost
    from            = andyd@...13...
    auth            = choose
    user            = andyd@...13...
    password        = *
    tls             = false
    tls_trust_file  =
    tls_key_file    =
    tls_cert_file   =
    tls_nostarttls  = false
    tls_nocertcheck = false
    dsn_notify      =
    dsn_return      =
    keepbcc         = false
    logfile         =
    <-- 220-server74.totalchoicehosting.com ESMTP Exim 4.43 #1 Fri, 24 Dec 2004 19:13:55 -0500

I added 'domain pheon.com' to the .msmtprc file.  No change --- still
fails. 

Help!  I'm lost.
