Hi,
Ever since the following commit:

--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
I can't run gnus with the following setting:
(setq mail-sources
'((directory :path "~/var/spool/mail" :suffix ".spool")))
I get the failure about "void-variable user". I think this is
related to the change:

+ * mail-source.el: Load auth-source.el.
+ (mail-source-bind): Add comments. Call auth-source-user-or-password to
+ get user name or password, if auth-sources is set up.

--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
For the directory mail source, user name and password do not
make sense. Reverting emacs to just before that commit allowed things
to proceed, and for me to send in this bug report.
