Message-ID: <4E7AED6A.9080901@dogan.se> (raw)

I'm trying to use Gnus for an IMAP server here.  However, when I 
connect, Emacs echoes that it's connecting and then it says "done" and 
from there, nothing happens.  I have to hit C-g to get anywhere, which 
gives me "nnimap (fripost) open error: ''. Continue? (y or n)".

I'm using:
GNU Emacs 24.0.50.1 (i386-mingw-nt6.1.7601) of 2011-09-19 on 3249CTO and 
Gnus v5.13

This is my Gnus configuration:

;; Who I am
(setq user-mail-address "deniz@dogan.se")
(setq user-full-name "Deniz Dogan")
(setq send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it)
(setq message-send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it)
(setq smtpmail-default-smtp-server "mailout.comhem.se")
(setq gnus-select-method
       '(nnimap "fripost"
            (nnimap-address "imap.fripost.org")
            (nnimap-server-port 993)
            (nnimap-stream ssl)
            (nnimap-authenticator login)))

I don't have any authentication information stored anywhere, but I 
figured Gnus should probably prompt me for it?

This is the output in *Messages*:

Any help appreciated!

Thanks,
Deniz
