SMTP + SSL with gnus 5.10

SMTP + SSL with gnus 5.10

[Matthieu Moy]

Hi all !

My company is migrating to an SSL-ized and authenticated SMTP, and
Gnus doesn't seem to manage this by default.

I found very old patches like
http://list-archive.xemacs.org/xemacs-patches/200011/msg00007.html
on the net, but nothing that I could apply to my version of
smtpmail.el

Anyone have a more recent version? Are there plans to include this in
Gnus?

Thanks for your answers,

SMTP auth supported by last version of smtpmail.el from GNU Emacs cvs. For
me it works fine

I have it working for the latest Emacs + released gnus (not CVS).  It
was a bit of a pain to setup until I realized my folly.  I didn't get
it working under XEmacs, though (again, everything at the "released"
stage).

Can I have hints on what you did ?

(I've posted a link about an xemacs patch because that's what I found on the
net, but I'm using GNU Emacs 21.2).

I've tried installing smtpmail.el and starttls.el from CVS Emacs on my 21.2
Emacs, I've installed starttls too, and now, all I'm able to get is :


Process SMTP segmentation Fault (core dumped)

Looks like starttls crashes.

Try removing starttls and installing GNUTLS instead.  Then smtpmail.el
will use it instead.
