There's no necessity to modify any Lisp modules since 2002-05-09 if you are using Emacs CVS. See the beginning of the smtpmail.el file, which can be found in the /some.where/21.3.50/lisp/mail/ directory. My setting is similar to the following: (setq message-send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it) (setq smtpmail-default-smtp-server "mail.jpl.org") (setq smtpmail-local-domain "jpl.org") (setq smtpmail-sendto-domain "jpl.org") (setq smtpmail-debug-info t) (setq smtpmail-auth-credentials '(("mail.jpl.org" 25 "yamaoka" "password"))) (setq smtpmail-starttls-credentials '(("mail.jpl.org" 25 nil nil))) Don't set `smtpmail-starttls-credentials' if you don't have the external starttls program.
