Subject: nnimap no workee once again
Date: Mon, 02 Jan 2012 10:28:29 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <878vlq15uq.fsf@newsguy.com> (raw)

Running recent gnus and emacs

These lines in .gnus:


   (setq gnus-secondary-select-methods
        '((nnml ""))) 

  (add-to-list 'gnus-secondary-select-methods '(nnimap "hputnam3"
                              (nnimap-address "imap.gmail.com")))

[ PS - Also tried with the long form username hputnam3@gmail.com, with
no hange and as far as I remember it was just `hputnam3' that has been
working.

-------        ---------       ---=---       ---------      -------- 

And this in .authinfo (password obfuscated)

  machine imap.gmail.com login hputnam3@gmail.com password ??XXX?? port imap

-------        ---------       ---=---       ---------      -------- 

Have been working to retrieve groups on gmail. It quit working
recently. not sure why.

In messages buffer I get:

Authentication failures.. but why?  I can login with those same
credentials just fine.
