gnus + imap + ssl (windows)

gnus + imap + ssl (windows)

[Aaron Son]

Ok, this is NT Emacs 21.2.1, with gnus v5.9.0

I'm trying to get gnus to work on an imap account of mine.  Server
access is restricted to SSL connections.  I've compiled and installed
openssl on the windows machine, and it's corrently in the path.  I've
added the following to my .gnus file:

(setq gnus-secondary-select-methods
      '((nnimap "aaronsonUIUC"
	 (nnimap-address "express.cites.uiuc.edu")
	 (nnimap-stream ssl))))

When I type "M-x gnus", I get the following in the *Message* buffer:

Reading c:/Documents and Settings/Aaron/Home/.newsrc.eld...
Reading active file from news.cso.uiuc.edu via nntp...
Reading active file from aaronsonUIUC via nnimap...
Opening nnimap server on aaronsonUIUC...

imap: Opening SSL connection with `nil'...failed
imap: Connecting to express.cites.uiuc.edu...failed

Opening nnimap server on aaronsonUIUC...
Denied server

Now, for some reason, it's not opening the SSL connection.  If I go to
the command line and type in the first command (openssl s_client -ssl3
-connect express.cites.uiuc.edu:993), it works perfectly.

Basically, what do I need to do to make it all work?  Thanks in advance.

You might have better luck posting to gnu.emacs.gnus
