Hi, all.
I've got a reproducable error using a modern Gnus on a modern GNU-Emacs
under Win2k. The problem is related to several versions and combinations
of versions:
Emacs Gnus result
21.2.1 ~ 5.8.8 ok
21.2.1 ~ 5.9.0 ok
21.2.1 ~ 5.10.2 ok
21.2.1 ~ 5.10.3 ok
21.3.1 + 5.9.0 ok
21.3.1 + 5.10.2 not ok
21.3.1 + 5.10.3 not ok
21.3.50 * 5.9.0 ok
21.3.50 * 5.10.2 not ok
21.3.50 * 5.10.3 not ok
~ precompiled, downloaded directly from www.gnu.org
+ precompiled from Internet
* CVS, 2003-07-15, compiled by MinGW
As far as I investigated Emacs got a modified smtpmail.el, having
significant changes in rmail-dont-reply-to:
smtpmail.el 21.2.1: 12819 Bytes (2001-07-01)
smtpmail.el 21.3.50: 13036 Bytes (CVS, 2003-07-15)
The new version of this file calls mail-strip-quoted-names using an
_empty_ string:
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (quit)
mail-strip-quoted-names("")
rmail-dont-reply-to("kai.grossjohann@gmx.net (Kai Gro\x8dfjohann)")
message-get-reply-headers(nil nil)
message-reply(nil nil)
gnus-summary-reply((10169) nil)
gnus-summary-reply-with-original(nil)
call-interactively(gnus-summary-reply-with-original)
To reproduce this bug please press R or r upon a news article to send a
mail reply to the poster. Emacs then hangs, he doesn't come back anymore.
Even my clock in the modeline stops counting. It looks like an endless
loop. I can only terminate it by pressing C-g. This is the reason why I
never got a working combination of a modern Emacs and a modern Gnus.
Emacs 21.3.50 includes still Gnus 5.9.0 in CVS.
I don't know if this problem is related to Win2k. I didn't try it using
Linux.
Thanx and good luck
