Thinking about it a bit more, I think you're right that we could get parameters from auth-source without it being too confusing. If, for instance, we have some multi-smtp setup that would, say, send all replies to messages you get from Gmail to smtp.gmail.com, then multi-smtp could just query auth-source for the port (and user name and password, of course). If the user has several smtp.gmail.com entries, then the user will have to specify further in the multi-smtp setup what user name to use, for instance. -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no * Sent from my Rome
