After googling a bit I find so much confusing and possibly outdated material about setting up gnus on windows that I hopped to ask here for a URL or directions that are current and I can understand. After fiddling with the settings in thunderbird it seemed to require these setting to work: pop: Server: pop.newsguy.com port 110 User: XXmyuserXX Connection Security: none Authentication method: Password Transmitted insecurely ========================================================== smtp: Server: smtp.newsguy.com port 25 user: XXmyuserXX Authentication method: Normal password Connection security: STARTTLS Where can I find how that translates into `~/.emacs/.gnus' config?
