Subject: reporting bug for gnus with pop3 function
Date: Thu, 11 May 2006 21:47:56 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <8764kc3c6r.fsf@laps.tsid.coa> (raw)


I am using debian testing / emacs-snapshot-unicode / gnus.

When I updated my gnus with aptitude to version 5.11+v0.4.dfsg-1,
I found that it could not fetch mail from gmail by pop3.

The related part of my dot.gnus file is as the following,

(setq mail-sources
  '((pop :server "pop.gmail.com"
         :port 995
         :user "stid.smth"
         :connection ssl
         :leave t)))

and when I typed "M-x gnus", gnus first prompt to input password
for my gmail account. I typed it correctly but gnus did not make
any reponse. After one minute or two, message was shown in the
mini buffer of my emacs. It said "mail source '((pop ...))..
error" or something like that. Inspite of this, reading news and
sending mail by stmp was not affected.

If I switch back to gnus 5.10.6-1.NO.20051213-1, everything is
OK.

Anyone else met with the same thing as me? Or is there anything
that I should notice with the new version of gnus?
