Remove smtpmail.el(c) that comes from the FLIM package (not the
one of Emacs).  You can find it by performing:

M-x locate-library RET smtpmail RET

The FLIM package contains the different version of smtpmail.el,
that issues the error message in question, though it will not be
installed normally.

Thanks to all of you,

I will work on emacs and gnus next days ( it is very time consuming ).

some guess:
1. you can try the newest devel version from gnus.git
2. install gnutls, openssl, and so on
3. Is your authinfo correct?
4. reinstall emacs
