Subject: Can't send mail with Emacs, can with XEmacs

A happy new year to you all!


Recently I've been trying to use Emacs (21 and 22) but cannot persuade
Gnus to send mail ....

Postfix coughs up this error message

Now I understand the message about the domain not being found; what I
don't understand is why the self-same .gnus file allows me to send mail
with XEmacs.  Can't see anything in my init.el that would affect this.

A successful mailing with XEmacs/Gnus looks like this in the logs

This was Oort Gnus.

Can anyone suggest where I might begin on this? Do Emacs and XEmacs have
different defaults for certain variables?

thanks for any light you can bring!
