I'm not positive, but to get pop over SSL you need an enhanced pop3.el file for gnus, which I need for fetching my mail from gmail. Try looking at http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/GnusGmail; there's a link in the 3rd paragraph to a site that contains an updated pop3 library with instructions on how to install it. Hope this helps. -- burton samograd kruhft .at. gmail kruhft.blogspot.com www.myspace.com/kruhft metashell.blogspot.com _______________________________________________ info-gnus-english mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english
