Subject: No indication of what's wrong with logging in to IMAP server
Date: Tue, 03 Jul 2001 15:10:10 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <vaf66dab1l9.fsf@lucy.cs.uni-dortmund.de> (raw)
With a system upgrade, my Cyrus saslpasswd entry got b0rked and I
couldn't log in. (I have an entry in ~/.authinfo for the IMAP
server.) When I started Gnus, I got no indication of what was the
error: Gnus kept trying to contact the IMAP server and Emacs appeared
hung. So I typed C-g to wake up Emacs, and then it continued and
showed me all nnimap groups with `*' in front. But I couldn't see any
message in the echo area that said that the IMAP server refused login
and why.
