Does anyone have a plan to fix that please ? Thank you You can use EPA, which comes with the CVS version of Emacs and can be downloaded otherwise, to automatically encrypt certain files so on disk they are encrypted, but to Emacs they will open as regular text files and thus can be used for authinfo. That's what I do with my authinfo.gpg file. I'm not sure what customization issue you're reporting. What is happening, and what is the problem? Ted
