Webmail using CVS Gnus

[Sridhar Boovaraghavan <sridhar_ml@yahoo.com>]

Hi,

I have just started playing around with the latest Gnus in CVS to try
fetching my mail from Yahoo.

After reading the documentation, I have the following configured.

--
mail-sources's value is 
((webmail :subtype yahoo :user "sridhar_ml" :dontexpunge t :plugged t))
gnus-secondary-select-methods's value is 
((nntp "news.gmane.org")
 (nnml ""))
--

When I start up gnus, it asks me for the password for sridhar_ml and
then there is a message that says that it cannot open
login.yahoo.com:443 that is not logged in the *Messages* buffer, but
is echoed in the minibuffer. A backtrace shows this:

--
  signal(error ("Could not create connection to login.yahoo.com:443"))
  error("Could not create connection to %s:%d" "login.yahoo.com" 443)
  url-http(["https" nil nil "login.yahoo.com" 443 "/config/login?38b2uq99ap98a" nil nil t] (lambda (&rest --cl-rest--) (snipped _sb)
  url-https(["https" nil nil "login.yahoo.com" 443 "/config/login?38b2uq99ap98a" nil nil t] (lambda (&rest --cl-rest--) (snipped _sb)
  url-retrieve("https://login.yahoo.com/config/login?38b2uq99ap98a" (lambda (&rest --cl-rest--) (snipped _sb))
  url-retrieve-synchronously("https://login.yahoo.com/config/login?38b2uq99ap98a")
  url-insert-file-contents("https://login.yahoo.com/config/login?38b2uq99ap98a")
  mm-url-fetch-simple("https://login.yahoo.com/config/login?38b2uq99ap98a" ".tries=&.src=ym&.last=&promo=&.intl=&.bypass=&.partner=&.chkP=Y&.done=&login=sridhar_ml&passwd=MyPass")
  webmail-url((content ("%s" webmail-aux) ".tries=&.src=ym&.last=&promo=&.intl=&.bypass=&.partner=&.chkP=Y&.done=&login=%s&passwd=%s" user password))
--

I am using the CVS versions of URL and W3 from savannah. I am trying
this on Emacs 21.2.93 on Windows XP.

Is this happening because I don't have some openssl available in the
path or something like that or have others experienced the same
problems with Yahoo?

Thanks,
Sridhar
