Wolf @ 2003-07-06 3:05 UTC (permalink / raw) I'm trying to use stunnel to provide the SSL that I cannot otherwise specify to gnus. But when I do, the traceback asks me for authentication information.

Specifying SSL directly to Gnus for this SMTP connection would be simpler. stunnel was just an attempt to get around Gnus' lack of this parameter. -- Michael R. Wolf All mammals learn by playing!

I still won't do the work though. :-) Of course, I'd encourage anyone else to do it, and might even help answering questions or committing the patch to CVS. > My ISP (att.net) requires it.

They could support SMTP over TLS too, for legacy clients. I'll repeat the suggestion to use SSH port forwarding that someone suggested; it is simple and reliable. You can even get it to work from behind a HTTP tunnel if you ever need to. Of course, this assume you have a Internet connected machine you can SSH to, and a SMTP server accessible from it.
