Consider using .authinfo e.g ,---- | gnus-select-method '(nnimap "mymail" | (nnimap-stream ssl) | (nnimap-address "imap.myhost.net") | (nnimap-authinfo-file "~/.authinfo") | (nnir-search-engine imap)) `---- And .authinfo is documented in the info file, but of the form: ,---- | machine imap.myhost.net login ++++++ password ********** `---- _______________________________________________ info-gnus-english mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english
