my news server reguires userid/password to connect.
if i use:
(setq gnus-select-method
'(nntp "news.xxxx.xxx"
; (nntp-open-connection-function nntp-open-ssl-stream)
; (nntp-port-number "563")
(nntp-address "news.xxxx.xxx")
))
it reads news and for posts ... it says posting with nntp
(setq gnus-select-method
'(nntp "news.xxxx.xxx"
(nntp-open-connection-function nntp-open-ssl-stream)
(nntp-port-number "563")
(nntp-address "news.xxxx.xxx")
))
if reads news fine ... but for posts ... it just hangs forever.
mozilla/thunderbird configured for ssl/563 reads news and posts just
fine.

watching the mozilla/thunderbird messages ... they appear to be using
smtp to post rather than nntp
gnus does nttp postings which works (on this service) with standard
nttp/119 ... but apparently isn't supported for nntps/563.

and with a little more testing ... it appears that in some cases the
post actually gets out in nttps/563 case (with nntp-open-ssl-stream) ...
it is just that gnus/emacs hangs (forever) waiting for some sort of
completion and emacs has to be killed (and the openssl process goes into
solid compute loop ... and openssl process has to be killed).
