Re: Dynamically switching send-mail settings

Thanks Lars, 

After years of emailing in Gnus I didn't think that was an issue; I guess I thought gnutls was built in to Fedora, or I wouldn't have been working. Anyway, I sudo yum installed it and rebuilt emacs. Now I get a different set of errors:

    gnutls.c: [1] (Emacs) allocating credentials
    gnutls.c: [1] (Emacs) setting the trustfile:  /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt
    gnutls.c: [1] (Emacs) gnutls callbacks
    gnutls.c: [1] (Emacs) gnutls_init
    gnutls.c: [1] (Emacs) got non-default priority string: NORMAL
    gnutls.c: [1] (Emacs) setting the priority string
    gnutls.c: [audit] Note that the security level of the Diffie-Hellman key exchange has been lowered to 256 bits and this may allow decryption of the session data

    gnutls.c: [1] (Emacs) non-fatal error: Resource temporarily unavailable, try again. [11798 times]
    gnutls.c: [audit] Received record packet of unknown type 50

    gnutls.c: [0] (Emacs) fatal error: An unexpected TLS packet was received.
    gnutls.el: (err=[-15] An unexpected TLS packet was received.) boot: (:priority NORMAL :hostname mail.toryanderson2.com :loglevel 1 :min-prime-bits 256 :trustfiles (/etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt) :crlfiles nil :keylist nil :verify-flags nil :verify-error nil :callbacks nil)
    gnutls-negotiate: GnuTLS error: #<process smtpmail>, -15

I was happy to see the Diffie-Hellman alert; that's what I get on my working email setup. But what's with the gnutls errors now? Seems like I'm getting closer and closer...
