Hi,
there's code from Kai Großjohann to pt POP3 passwords in ~/.authinfo:
<http://search.gmane.org/?query=gnus%20authinfo%20pop&group=gmane.emacs.gnus.*>
,----[ <news:86vfcvxdzh.fsf@ketchup.de.uu.net> ]
| (setq mail-sources `(... (pop :server "foo" :user "bar"
| :passwd ,(pw-from-authinfo)) ...))
|
| (defun pw-from-authinfo ()
| [...]
`----
,----[ http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.gnus.user/8170/focus=8194 ]
| (defun pw-from-authinfo (popserver)
| (require 'nntp)
| (let* ((x (netrc-parse nntp-authinfo-file))
| (item (netrc-machine x popserver))
| (pw (netrc-get item "password")))
| pw))
`----
People asked why this is not included in Gnus proper. Could anyone
using POP3 check the code an include (and document) it if it's good?
Bye, Reiner.
