I've been trying to get gnus speak smtp with my smtp-server, to avoid having a local MTA (exim, sendmail etc).
I get the following error from gnus: unknown extesion xverp Sending failed; SMTP protocol error I'm on a woody-box behind a firewall and an ADSL-modem. In my .emacs I have: (setq user-full-name "Ole Sebastian Stein") (setq user-mail-address "[EMAIL PROTECTED]") (setq smtpmail-default-smtp-server "mail.stud.ntnu.no") (setq smtpmail-local-domain nil) (setq send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it) (load-library "smtpmail") and in my .gnus I have; (load-library "message") (setq message-send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it) I've tried to have both the lisp-parts above in my .emacs, but that doesn't do anything good. -- Ole Sebastian Stein [EMAIL PROTECTED]
