About a week ago, my outgoing mail started hanging after I typed ^C^C to send it (feedmail-send-it). I noticed that the mail was sent (because I would get a copy, if I was Cced, the next time I fetched mail) but I wouldn't get the "done" message nor a copy of the outgoing message in my Gcc folder; instead, I had to ^G out and kill the message buffer to return control to Gnus. After poking around a bit in the code and reviewing the SMTP trace buffer ... I'm hanging at the end of smtpmail-via-smtp: the "QUIT" is sent and processed, but the succeeding call to smtpmail-read-response never returns (it just churns away in the while loop looking for a "\r\n" that it never receives): if I comment out that last call to smtpmail-read-response, of course, the delete-process at the end of smtpmail-via-smtp runs, I get my "done" and my Gcc copy, etc.. I suppose I can live with that, since I don't need the final return value from smtpmail-read-response and the delete-process should take care of any leftover output from the SMTP server, but ... Now, my ISP claims "no changes on its end" and it's hard to say "No Way" since my wife uses the same ISP SMTP server on her laptop (with Outlook as her MUA). But, then again, I haven't changed anything on my end, either ... I'm open to any suggestions at this point ... -- Alfred Correira Correira@Flash.Net Alfred@FireantRanch.Com --- Law Can Never Make Us As Secure As We Are When We Do Not Need It. -- Alexander M. Bickel
