This gmail interfacing never seems to run smoothly - it might be nice if
you can (or maybe you have already) update the emacs wiki with your
config. It, or rather that issue, does seem to rear its ugly head an
awful lot. I have vague memories of starttls on a debian being an issue
but really cant remember how I got it working. That combined with my
dynamic IP being blacklisted! I don't use gmail directly from gnus
anymore and prefer to run my own imap server which is fed by getmail.
