Subject: Gnus doesn't connect to my SMTP server
Date: Sun, 9 Dec 2012 08:29:57 -0500 (EST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <25030.77.109.139.26.1355059797.squirrel@lavabit.com> (raw)
Hello list.
I have two machines: A and B.
A is running Dovecot and Postfix.
B is running Gnus.
I can connect to A via IMAP to read messages, but I can't
reply. Something is wrong because the `From:' field shows the
`user@hostname' of B, but it should show my email address instead (for
instance, admin@example.com).
There was nothing related to SMTP in `*Messages*'. How can I tell Gnus
to connect to the SMTP server?
(I've seen the `i-did-not-set--mail-host-address--so-tickle-me'
warning, but I assume it's a different issue.)
I've never used SMTP. Is it connected with Gnus or Postfix? Is it
necessary to configure Postfix on B?
.gnus.el:
(setq gnus-select-method
'(nnimap "A"
(nnimap-address "machine")
(nnimap-stream ssl)))
(setq message-send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it)
(setq smtpmail-starttls-credentials '(("machine" 25 nil nil)))
(setq smtpmail-auth-credentials '(("machine" 25 "admin" nil)))
(setq smtpmail-default-smtp-server "machine")
(setq smtpmail-smtp-service 25)
(setq starttls-use-gnutls t)
