English Version:
Hi Guys,
I'd like to use gnus as mail reader and client, but unfortunately I have no experience with it. With help of some tutorials I managed to get it running and I am able to read my mails. For this I used the configuration as shown in the code block below, where I posted my whole .gnus file. So reading is fine, but sending does not work. Whenever I try to send a mail I get 'Process SMTP is not running'.
complete.gnus: (I use an.authinfo file for the passwords)
===========================================
(setq imap-log t)
(setq user-mail-address "g...c@gmail.com")
(setq user-full-name "gnus Tester")
(setq gnus-select-method
'(nnimap "gmail"
(nnimap-address "imap.gmail.com")
(nnimap-server-port 993)
(nnimap-stream ssl)))
(setq message-send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it
smtpmail-starttls-credentials '(("smtp.gmail.com" 587 nil nil))
smtpmail-auth-credentials '(("smtp.gmail.com" 587 "g...c@gmail.com" nil))
smtpmail-default-smtp-server "smtp.gmail.com"
smtpmail-smtp-server "smtp.gmail.com"
smtpmail-smtp-service 587
gnus-ignored-newsgroups "^to\\.\\|^[0-9. ]+\\( \\|$\\)\\|^[\"]\"[#'()]")
(setq starttls-use-gnutls t)
(setq starttls-gnutls-program "gnutls-cli")
(setq starttls-extra-arguments nil)
===========================================
Starting my search for a solution with this error message got me to the point, that on the one hand other people have the same issue, but on the other hand apparently nobody has a real solution. That's why I had a closer look at the 'trace of SMTP session to smtp.gmail.com' buffer:
===========================================
Process SMTP exited abnormally with code 1
EHLO snow.tower
250-mx.google.com at your service, [31.17.107.137]
250-SIZE 35882577
250-8BITMIME
250-STARTTLS
250-ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES
250 CHUNKIEHLO snow.tower
QUIT
===========================================
Noticeable is that my computer tries to access the SMTP server as snow.tower (my local hostname and domain), which fails of course. That is also my first question: How can I configure gnus to use another hostname and domain?
Anyway, I believe the main problem lays in here: (Messages buffer)

smtpmail-send-command: Process SMTP not running
===========================================
Obviously the connection quit, an the SMTP process does not find a connection. I wonder why the certificates are not accepted by my (?) system. I would believe that the certificates are valid, because they are from google and I think these guys are capable of creating valid certificates.
thx for your help
PS: I use debian sid, emacs version 23.4.1, and have gnutls-bin installed.
