Hello,
yesterday I managed to upgrade from Emacs21.1 gnus v5.9.0 to Oort Gnus
v0.07. A couple of questions/ problems arise:
o Opening my old nnmbox file reveals an error:
Reading active file from emsend via nnmbox...
Opening nnmbox server on emsend...done
nnmbox-record-active-article: Article Sun-MCC:1 already exists!
Mark set
the relevant line in the nnmbox file looks like
Lines: 23
Xref: diabolo.federation.Germany.Sun.COM Sun-MCC:1
X-Gnus-Newsgroup: Sun-MCC:1 Thu Apr 6 10:36:33 2000
BTW: How are messages delimted in a nnmbox file? It seems a bit
corrupted now cause messages aren't split correctly, maybe I need to
fix this manually.
o When starting Gnus there a bunch of nnfolder+archive that are
empty. They can be deleted by C-k but allways reappear on every
startup.
o Imap Access over SSL:
Is there a way to retrieve an imap box with client X.509
authentification over a local ssl connection tunneled through https?
I've tried the following:
(nnimap "Class"
(nnimap-address "localhost")
(nnimap-server-port 9993)
(nnimap-stream ssl))
But I only get the error message:
Reading active file from Class via nnimap...
Opening nnimap server on Class...
Denied server
Opening nnimap server on Class...failed
According to
http://mail.gnu.org/pipermail/emacs-devel/2002-February/005386.html
that google retrieved I guess this is planned for Emacs21.3 using
GnuTLS lib. So chances are bad?
o nnvirtual Group:
I made a new nnvirtual group composed of two nnml groups. When getting
new mail gnus thinks there are 48 new messages in the nnvirtual, but there
aren't. Both subgroups report 0 messages and after entering/ exiting
the nnvirtual group gnus is convinced that there aren't any messages.
o nndraft: Is there a way to save buffer-local variables as fill-prefix
as well?
So far, maybe more to come...
Regards -- Peter

Each message starts with a From_ line. That's a line where the first
five(!) characters are "From ". Note the space.
Each message ends with an empty line. That's two consecutive newline
characters.
Usually, this means that a message must not contain a From_ line,
except at the beginning. But Gnus has been augmented to look at
Content-Length (I think) and Lines headers so that From_ lines in the
middle are not a problem.

You must install OpenSSL and ssl.el from, e.g., W3.

No, that work wasn't accepted so the OpenSSL/ssl.el solution will remain.

Simon> You must install OpenSSL and ssl.el from, e.g., W3.
Thanks, this sounds optimistic!
I installed Version: 1.2 of ssl.el which looks a bit out of date, but anyway.
Now I get in the message buffer:
Opening nnimap server on Class...
imap: Connecting to localhost...
Loading cl-macs...done
imap: Opening SSL connection with `openssl s_client -quiet -ssl3 -connect %s:%p'...
imap: Opening SSL connection with `openssl s_client -quiet -ssl2 -connect %s:%p'...
imap: Connecting to localhost...failed
Opening nnimap server on Class...failed
From the process list I see openssl getting started:
11179 /bin/sh -c openssl s_client -quiet -ssl2 -connect localhost:9993
11180 openssl s_client -quiet -ssl2 -connect localhost:9993
Trussing openssl gives:
poll(0xFFBEEF40, 2, -1) (sleeping...)
poll(0xFFBEEF40, 2, -1) = 1
read(4, 0x00171438, 2) = 0
getpid() = 11231 [11230]
getpid() = 11231 [11230]
getpid() = 11231 [11230]
getpid() = 11231 [11230]
getpid() = 11231 [11230]
shutdown(4, 0, 1) = 0
close(4) = 0
getpid() = 11231 [11230]
getpid() = 11231 [11230]
llseek(0, 0, SEEK_CUR) Err#29 ESPIPE
_exit(0)
From my https wrapper I see some traffic going in both directions, that dies
after a while, than nothing seems to happen, no password interaction is
prompted.
Any further hints?
Peter

Is your OpenSSL installation working?
Try running the command above on the command line, you should get a
IMAP protocol prompt. If not, it is an OpenSSL problem.

Hello,
one step further:
I manage successfull ssl connection with using
openssl s_client -quiet -connect localhost:9993 -ssl3 -cert usercert.pem
-key userkey.pem -CAfile rootca.crt
(localhost:9993 is tunneled by https through firewall)
when I set imap-ssl-program to the appropriate value, I'm not even getting
asked for the private key's password. This seems to be a gnus/ emacs related
issue.
Is imap-ssl-program not the correct var to store this?
Thanks for further hints -- Peter

Additional information from the *imap-log* log buffer confirms this:
Enter PEM pass phrase:
unable to get private key from '/home/pw105345/Mail/Peter_Weiss_userkey.pem'
