Actually, it was set to just smtpmail-send-it (no "message-"). I tried 
changing it back but that seems to have made no difference. For some 
reason, my .gnus.el had this:

+----
| (setq send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it
|      message-send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it)
+----

I changed the second one, so it's now:

+----
| (setq send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it
|       message-send-mail-function 'message-smtpmail-send-it)
+----

Still no good.

Alas, despite years of emacs abuse, I have not managed to master even 
the rudiments of emacs lisp, and don't even know how to edebug.

Thanks!
