Thanks for your help. I experimented a bit further and had a partial success with this setup: (setq user-mail-address "@gmx.com") (setq user-full-name "@gmx.com") (setq smtpmail-default-smtp-server "mail.gmx.com" smtpmail-local-domain "gmx.com") (load-library "smtpmail") (setq message-send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it) (setq send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it smtpmail-smtp-server "mail.gmx.com" smtpmail-stream-type 'ssl smtpmail-smtp-service 465) with this setup I can send a mail (command "m"), but when I try to follow up a post in a gmane mailing list (command "F"), I still get the message: Couldn't send message via news: 441 You need a valid email address to post: Invalid response from SMTP server mx00.gmx.net: 554-gmx.net (mxgmx014) Nemesis ESMTP Service not available Best wishes, Georg
