With .emacs containing
(custom-set-variables
'(smtpmail-default-smtp-server "foo"))
starting Emacs and M-x eval-expression smtpmail-default-smtp-server
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-variable smtpmail-default-smtp-server)
...
but
(custom-set-variables
'(smtpmail-default-smtp-server "smtp.telefonica.net" NOW))
works. So yes, there is something about custom-set-variables and
defvar/defcustom.
