Subject: pop error in 0.81 and 0.82

Message-ID: <vxk20bg45nm.fsf@pocari-sweat.jprc.com> (raw)

The problem is that
(list nnmail-internal-password)
generates
("xxxxx")
while
(list (prin1-to-string nnmail-internal-password))
generates
("\"xxxxx\"")
Reverting to the non-prin1 case makes it work again.
