Hi all.
Since this morning I've had some trouble sending mail w/gnus. I sit on a
RedHat 8.0 machine, I use the latest Oort of this morning and emacs 21.2.1 of
standard RedHat. The only obvious thing different from the last time it
worked is an installation of w3m-el, which I later removed. Other than that,
I have not been fiddling with .gnus for a while. On the other hand I haven't
restartet emacs and gnus for a couple of days either, so who knows :-)
The relevant section of my .gnus:
(setq smtpmail-smtp-server "carl.deich.folkebibl.no")
(setq message-send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it)
Is there anything else I need to do? Looking at the docs it seems that this
should be enough.
And, I threw in this to see if I could get something useful out of it:
(setq smtpmail-debug-info t)
but there's no SMTP debug buffer there at all, before it fails.
What is also strange, is that if I try to customize smtpmail after I load
gnus, the group is empty.
Debugger trace (sorry for the long lines):
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument stringp nil)
open-network-stream("SMTP" #<buffer *trace of SMTP session to nil*> nil "smtp")
apply(open-network-stream ("SMTP" #<buffer *trace of SMTP session to nil*> nil "smtp"))
binary-funcall(open-network-stream "SMTP" #<buffer *trace of SMTP session to nil*> nil "smtp")
smtp-open-connection(#<buffer *trace of SMTP session to nil*> nil "smtp")
smtp-send-buffer("jornhd@torfeus.deich.folkebibl.no" ("jornhd@deich.folkebibl.no") #<buffer smtpmail temp>)
smtpmail-send-it()
message-smtpmail-send-it()
gnus-agent-send-mail()
message-send-mail(nil)
message-send-via-mail(nil)
message-send(nil)
message-send-and-exit()
gnus-draft-send(29 "nndraft:drafts" t)
gnus-draft-send-message(nil)
call-interactively(gnus-draft-send-message)
Looking at the trace it seems that there is no server that smtpmail can send
to, and that that is the error, but I'm nothing of a hacker here, so that is
just a guess.
Doing a M-: smtpmail-smtp-server when in the buffer of the failed mail returns
"carl.deich.folkebibl.no", though.
Thanks,

Your problem is FLIM -- remove the FLIM package and the problem will go
away.
