Subject: Gnus parses authinfo even if no server require that
Date: Wed, 09 May 2012 12:36:31 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <874nrqm0mo.fsf@xc.laptop> (raw)

I recently have my ~/.authinfo GPG-encrypted, and Gnus keeps
asking me to decrypt that on startup.  But none of my select
methods require authentication --- one is nnml, which I
apparently didn't encrypt; another is leafnode local server, nor
does it require authentication.

Wondering what's wrong here, I set nntp-authinfo-file for
localhost to "/dev/null", but it still asks me for a password.

The authinfo file contains only one line, used to send my mail.

Like a bug?
