Can you wake up Emacs with the C-g key? (Maybe hit it twice.) If that works, then please do C-u 1 M-x toggle-debug-on-error RET and repeat the problem. When Emacs appears to have hung, hit C-g. Study the resulting backtrace. Hit c. Wait a while (20 seconds, say). Hit C-g again. Study the resulting backtrace. Hit c, wait, C-g, study, and so on for maybe 5 or 10 times. Now you should have seen a pattern to what is happening: you should be able to tell whether Emacs is stuck in the same function all the time, or whether it is making slow progress, or whether it is in an infinite loop. Report your findings. Another useful thing to do is to (setq smtpmail-debug-info t) and repeat the problem. When Emacs appears hung, wake it up with C-g. Now you should have a buffer called *trace of smtp session...* or something similar. Post the contents of that buffer (after censoring the passwords, if any). Kai
