Subject: bug#4706: 23.1.50; RMAIL mode fails to read mail first time
Date: Mon, 12 Oct 2009 12:28:18 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4363-Mon12Oct2009122818+0100-jpff@cs.bath.ac.uk> (raw)
This started happening a few days ago. When I invoke rmail command it
loads by RMAIL file and then asserts that there it cannot get the po:
password, and there is no new mail. I then run (rmail-get-new-mail)
explicitely and it works. I have
(setq rmail-primary-inbox-list
'("po:jpff" "/var/spool/mail/jpff"))
(setenv "MAILHOST" "air.cs.bath.ac.uk")
and the password is set
(custom-set-variables
'(rmail-pop-password-required t)
'(rmail-pop-password "xxxxxxxx"))
This counts more of an irritation than a bug, but it used to work. On
my other network which does not use pop there is no problem.
