Subject: nnimap: saver user but not password
Date: Thu, 25 Nov 2010 11:33:56 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87r5e9bskr.fsf@gilgamesch.quim.ucm.es> (raw)
Hello
In the old nognus 0.11 I could save my settings including my
userid, but not the password in the
.imap-authinfo file,
like this
machine imap.gmail.com login user1@gmail.com password port 993
machine UCM login user2 password force yes
Now in the newest gnus version (via git) the information is
saved in
.authinfo.gpg [1]
however it is not possible to save the information without
the password, all the time gnus asks for *user* and
*password*
and asks to save the information, but again only *user*
_and_ *password*. It seems impossible to save *user* alone.

Footnotes:
[1] (BTW I don't understand why this file has the gpg ending, per
default it is an ASCII file.)
