It looks like starttls failed in connecting to the server at the
beginning.  No negotiation started.  After that, see the buffer
named "*trace of SMTP session to SERVER*".  If it is successful,
there should be the line that begins with 220, like:

220 SERVER PROGRAM&VERSION at DATE

You can test it manually using starttls in the terminal emulator
as the following:

$ starttls SERVER 587

Type "EHLO domain.name<RET>" after the server responds.  Where
`domain.name' is the same as the value set to `wl-local-domain'.
And type "QUIT<RET>" to exit the session.
