Starting gnus via the following defuun will trigger the problem: (defun jnc-gnus () (interactive) (select-frame (or (car (filtered-frame-list (lambda (x) (string= "--Mail--" (cdr (assoc 'name (frame-parameters x))))))) (make-frame '((name . "--Mail--"))))) (other-frame 0) (if (string-match "^slowfox\\>" (system-name)) (progn (require 'gnus-agent) (gnus-unplugged)) (gnus))) Alternatively, simply create a new frame via 'C-x 5 b' and then start gnus in that new frame. With 21.4.3 under Solaris 7 I will consistently hang with the symptom that has now been corrected via your patch. However, password handling will not work. If I start gnus in the intial frame, password handling will work fine and the original problem (using latest ognus with your patches) works fine too. And this is true even of I move gnus into its own frame after it is up and running. -- Jake Colman Principia Partners LLC Phone: (201) 946-0300 Harborside Financial Center Fax: (201) 946-0320 902 Plaza II Beeper: (800) 928-4640 Jersey City, NJ 07311 E-mail: colman@ppllc.com E-mail: jcolman@jnc.com web: http://www.ppllc.com
