You'll have to be a little more specific about the error. I am sending with
mutt right now and having no trouble, so it isn't mutt. My suspicion is
that you have Thunderbird configured to talk directly to your ISP's SMTP
server, but you have not configured your local MTA as a smarthost so that
mutt can use it to talk to your ISP's SMTP server. Since mutt does not
natively support SMTP (the project is very clear on it being an MUA, not an
MUA/MTA like Thunderbird et al.), your local MTA must be properly
configured.

If you aren't aware of any MTA configuration on your machine, you are
probably running the Debian default MTA, exim4. You need to run
dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config and set it up as a smarthost (debconf will
walk you through it) to use your ISP's SMTP server.
