Subject: smtp send it and creds
Date: Tue, 16 Feb 2021 19:31:40 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87ft1vv8k3.fsf@local.lan> (raw)
I must be getting the code wrong for passing the credentials without
manual intervention.
My smtp code in gnus looks like:
(setq message-send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it ; if you use message/Gnus
smtpmail-smtp-server "smtp.xxxxxxxx.com"
smtpmail-stream-type 'ssl
smtpmail-smtp-service 465
smtpmail-auth-credentials "/home/reader/.authinfo")
A few times it passed a message without dunning me for password but
mostly not...
My authinfo entry:
machine smtp.xxxxxxxxxx.com login xxxxx@xxxxxxx.com passwd xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Even though the wiki says the style below was stopped a good while
ago, I tried it any way with no better results.
;; '(("smtp.xxxxx.com" 465 "xxxxx@xxxxxx.xxx" "xxxxxxxxxxxxxx")))
