Hi Stewart,
I did your optioned send below, except I used -port 2525 and it went!
...
What now? send -snoop -mts smtp -server mail.eskimo.com -port 2525
Trying to connect to "mail.eskimo.com" ...
Connecting to 204.122.16.4:2525...
<= 220 mail.eskimo.com ESMTP Postfix

<= 250-AUTH=PLAIN LOGIN
...

Great. So you need to edit your ~/.mh_profile to change send's -port
back to 2525, as it was when you started. You mentioned Verizon being a
problem in the past, and it looks like it still it, blocking your port
25 connection to Eskimo.
https://www.eskimo.com/support/mail/mail-settings/ says they support
2525 to workaround this.
Once you've done that, you should find a plain
send -snoop
fails because it tries to connect to localhost's port 2525, but a
send -snoop -server mail.eskimo.com
works. If so, then /etc/nmh/mts.conf's `servers' entry isn't being
obeyed. Either it isn't being read, or its getting trumped by something
else.
Does `env | grep MTS' show anything? There are two environment
variables, MHMTSCONF and MHMTSUSERCONF, that can alter whence the
mts.conf settings are gathered.
