You seem to have configured a username and password for SMTP
authentication, yet the server Git connects to doesn't support
authentication.

Make sure the SMTP server you've configured Git to use
(sendemail.smtpserver configuration variable) is the right one.
If so, clear the smtpemail.smtpuser and smtpemail.smtppass
variables as you obviously can't use them with the server.

For testing purposes there are options to "git send-email" to
override the values set in the configuration files. Those might
be more convenient to use when testing out new configurations.
