My ISP provides SMTP over SSL on the SMTP server smtp.welho.com on port 465. I know this, because running openssl s_client -crlf -connect smtp.welho.com:465 gives me a lot of TLS/SSL info and then an SMTP prompt. No username or password is needed to get the prompt. After I get the prompt, I can issue SMTP commands just fine. So the SMTP connection over SSL works perfectly. However, I have had a lousy time trying to utilize this secure connection with Gnus. When trying to send email with Gnus, the connection just hangs, no SMTP prompt or output after the following message: Opening STARTTLS connection to smtp.welho.com:465: done. When I change the port to the default (insecure) 25, everything works fine. Here is my setup from .gnus. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- (require 'starttls) (setq smtpmail-debug-info t) (setq starttls-use-gnutls t) (setq smtpmail-smtp-service 465) (setq smtpmail-starttls-credentials '(("smtp.welho.com" 465 nil nil))) (setq send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it) (setq message-send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it) (setq smtpmail-smtp-server "smtp.welho.com") ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Help would be much appreciated. I am running No Gnus v0.11 on Fedora 13. -- Jarmo Hurri Remove all garbage from header email address when replying, or just use firstname.lastname@edu.hel.fi .
