Gnus hang, when sending mail from gmail account with gnutls.

Hi gnusers

I can receive mails of gmail by imap. However, after struggling for several
days, I still fail to send mail in gnus.
Would you please help to root cause the problem? My environment: cygwin +
ntemacs 23.

Below is my gnus related configuration, and ~/.authinfo is correct.

And it hangs with the output of "220 2.0.0 Ready to start TLS", when I try
to invoke message-send in *Message* mode.
No problem is found, when manually invoke "gnutls-cli-debug.exe
www.google.com".

It seems hang at smtpmail.el::smtpmail-via-smtp
line 672        (if (or (null (car (setq greeting (smtpmail-read-response
process))))

One more confusing:
- Since I have explicitly configured to use gnutls by (setq
starttls-use-gnutls t), why we have STARTTLS output in the buffer of "*trace
of SMTP seesion".

Denny

As a workaround ...

There was a thread earlier in the year about this. The same issue crops
up a lot (under Linux AND Windows btw) and TLS confuses a lot of people
and/or seems very creaky. - I know it did me ;) The thread earlier in
the year posted a solution using msmtp I *think* :--

http://www.mail-archive.com/info-gnus-english@gnu.org/msg08606.html

Hopefully this might work for you.

Thanks a lot, Richard.

I have tried msmtp, it works well.

Not sure whether this is known issue for emacs in windows.

Denny
