Hi,

I use gnus via imap (over ssl) to get mail from our exchange
server as follows:

(setq nnimap-stream 'ssl
      gnus-select-method
      '(nnimap "mail-imap"
	       (nnimap-address "ourexchsrvr")
	       (nnimap-list-pattern "INBOX"))
       ;; ...
       )

All's well under 21.2.  However, under 21.3, this error traceback
happens when I select the "INBOX" group:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Couldn't open server")
  signal(error ("Couldn't open server"))
  error("Couldn't open server")
  gnus-select-newsgroup("INBOX" nil nil)
  gnus-summary-read-group-1("INBOX" nil nil nil nil nil)
  gnus-summary-read-group("INBOX" nil nil nil nil nil nil)
  gnus-group-read-group(nil)
  call-interactively(gnus-group-read-group)

I checked the version of gnus on both 21.2 and 21.3 is v5.9.0.

I'm running i386 RedHat 7.3.

FYI, I removed the dependence of ssl.el in the main branch of the
Emacs CVS in Feb 28 2003.

Does it go into the next release of Emacs?

It will go in the next release that we make from the trunk.
We may make a 21.4 release that is 21.3 with small fixes.

The reason is probably that you don't have ssl.el on your
path. ssl.el is not a part of Emacs. Loading ssl package should fix
the problem. 

This problem has been fixed future releases of Emacs.
