I know just enough to be dangerous... I managed to get POP up and running, but I am having trouble with SMTP. So far, I have downloaded sendmail.el and smtpmail.el and dropped them into my current working emacs directory: /usr/local/lib/emacs/site-lisp The relavent bit of my .emacs is: (setq send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it) ; if you use `mail' (setq message-send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it) ; if you use message/Gnus (setq smtpmail-default-smtp-server "smtpauth.earthlink.net") (setq smtpmail-local-domain "foobar.com") (setq smtpmail-sendto-domain "foobar.com") (setq smtpmail-debug-info t) ; only to debug problems (setq smtpmail-auth-credentials ; or use ~/.authinfo '(("smtpauth.earthlink.net" 25 "fred@mindspring.com" "password"))) With this stuff in place, I try to compose a message with 'm' and I get the error: Variable binding exceeds max-specpdl-size I have milled through a pile of .emacs files, but I haven't been able to piece anything together to make it work. Any advice? Thanks, Catherine
