It will be realy nice, I have tryed to do something with this starttls elisp/C and smtp.el, but without some better progress. :-( On the first look it seems simple, but it isn't. What Gnus + smtpmail must to do is: - open connection on port 25 - EHLO (not HELO) - STARTTLS (now he must show certificate to MTA and open ssl) - EHLO (yes, again, but now MTA don't offer STARTTLS anymore) - AUTH CRAM-MD5 (optionaly) - MAIL FROM: ...... etc... > As you noted, SMTP with the CRAM-MD5 SASL method is available at [2]. > I'm not sure the patch still apply cleanly but only minor > modifications should be required anyway. It looks like i miss some libraries, because patch wont byte-compile properly. BTW, nnimap.el (or something in cooperation with it) is using CRAM-MD5 SASL when loging to cyrus imapd. -- This signature intentionally left blank
