I'm reporting the procedure I followed: I came to it with the thread
`Configuring gnus for gmail' on the present newsgroup: see
http://groups.google.com/group/gnu.emacs.gnus/browse_frm/thread/354ae098fe8476ac/a76bfac57a60481e?q=configuring+gnus+for+gmail&rnum=1#a76bfac57a60481e
. You need both emacs cvs and gnus cvs, and also the packages libgcrypt
and gnutls.
Cheers,
Rodolfo
;;; Mini how-to: gnus and gmail ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
I downloaded and installed emacs cvs;
from
ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/libgpg-error
I downloaded libgpg-error-1.1.tar.gz and installed it the usual way;
from
ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/libgcrypt/
I downloaded libgcrypt-1.2.2.tar.gz and installed it the usual way;
from
http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/
I downloaded gnutls-1.2.9.tar.bz2 and installed it the usual way;
from
http://cvs.m17n.org/viewcvs/*checkout*/root/gnus/lisp/pop3.el?only_with_tag=t-gnus-6_17-quimby&rev=1.6.30.21.4.16
I fetched the file pop3.el, put it in '~/' and did:
$ cd ~/gnus/lisp
$ mv pop3.el pop3.el-original
$ cp ~/pop3.el pop3.el
;
I downloaded and installed gnus cvs (?);
in .gnus.el I put the following stuff:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
; The following line is needed when using pop3.el from T-gnus (m17n.org).
(eval-after-load "mail-source" '(require 'pop3))
(setq user-full-name "Rodolfo Medina")
(setq user-mail-address "rodolfo.medina@gmail.com")
(setq mail-sources '((pop :server "pop.gmail.com"
:port 995
:user "rodolfo.medina"
:connection ssl
:leave t)))
; Sending mail
(setq message-send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it)
(setq smtpmail-starttls-credentials '(("smtp.gmail.com" 587 nil nil)))
(setq smtpmail-auth-credentials '(("smtp.gmail.com" 587 "rodolfo.medina@gmail.com" nil)))
(setq smtpmail-default-smtp-server "smtp.gmail.com")
(setq smtpmail-smtp-server "smtp.gmail.com")
(setq smtpmail-smtp-service 587)
