What's a good way to use SMTP AUTH with Gnus?
Similarly, SASL in IMAP, with nnimap?

(setq smtpmail-auth-credentials
'(("HOSTNAME" "PORT" "USERNAME" "PASSWORD")))
The password field can be nil, to make Gnus query for it each time.

Happens automatically. If you don't want to enter the password
manually, add it to ~/.authinfo.

Why not only put information in .authinfo with force keyword ?
machine your.smtp.tld port 25 login YourLogin password YourPasswd force yes
That's what I have here, and all the mail is sent by smtp-auth. I
don't have the smtp-auth-credential...

Nnimap uses imtest for GSSAPI/Kerberos 5, which isn't implemented in
elisp yet, as far as I know. I guess it could be used for other SASL
mechanisms too, but since SASL support is built in, I don't see why
you would want that.
