Hm... looking at the .emacs diff, two variables are set ("Apply and
save" saved all variables in the customize buffer) , and I don't know
which one had the desired effect:

diff --git a/.emacs b/.emacs

(the gnus-cloud-method change was not something I did intentionally and
happened before I started messing with movemail.  I have no idea what
this change does)
