Wow. But what's the reason of releasing 0.8 when 0.7 hasn't been
released yet? Other then more confusion with versions. :)

Or maybe I misunderstood something, nevermind...

OK, thanks.

This actually works now, thanks. I was pulling from CVS at least two
times in the last few months and everytime it stuck when loading with
something like 'mml-secure-verbose not defined'. So I gave up after a
bit of debugging.

Only with versioning, yes. It's strange. :)

And even after exclusively using Gnus as my mail/news reader of
preference for a decade, I really think of myself as an Gnus amateur,
mostly because I'm no good at Lisp (close second reason would of course
be that Gnus is sooo powerful). But, I'm persistent and looking forward
to improve in the next ten years, bear with me. :)
