> 24.3 can't send mail

[Tory S. Anderson]

I am unable to send mail in emacs 24.4 or 25.0.5; attempting to send gives me the error:

530 5.7.0 Must issue a STARTTLS command first. a41sm3439205yhb.43 - gsmtp

According to what I can see by googling around, similar errors have been cropping up for years. I'm just not sure what would have changed between my working
    GNU Emacs 24.3.1 (x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.10.9) of 2014-09-30 on buildvm-10.phx2.fedoraproject.org

and those later versions?

Re: > 24.3 can't send mail

I should add that the setup I'm using for mail, which has worked for years prior to 24.4+, is mostly borrowed from the emacs page http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/SendingMail. To be precise, my source is this:

I think the problem is with smtpmail-auth-credentials and
smtpmail-starttls-credentials: in Emacs 24 you need to set that in
your ~/.authinfo file.  See etc/NEWS for the details (search for
"SMTPmail").

Re: > 24.3 can't send mail

[Tory S. Anderson]

I think you're on to something, Eli. I see a daunting amount on smtp changes in the news files. Unfortunately, I'm not sure what to do next. I went so far as to comment-out everything you see below and then fired up the new emacs (my .authinfo file still exists unchanged); upon trying to send mail I seemed to make progress when it asked what outgoing server I wanted, but after specifying smtp.gmail.com, it seemed to freeze; one C-g later and it gave me the same old TLS error. 

Does anyone have an example of a working smtp setup in emacs >24.3?

Did you read NEWS and did you try to do what it suggests in order to
copy your customizations to ~/.authinfo?  If not, please do, what you
have there is good advice.

> I went so far as to comment-out everything you see below and then fired up the new emacs (my .authinfo file still exists unchanged); upon trying to send mail I seemed to make progress when it asked what outgoing server I wanted, but after specifying smtp.gmail.com, it seemed to freeze; one C-g later and it gave me the same old TLS error. 

Starting afresh is a good idea.  Eventually, if you cannot get it to
work starting from "emacs -Q", submit a bug report with all the
details using "M-x report-emacs-bug", and I'm sure you will get this
resolved one way or another.

> Does anyone have an example of a working smtp setup in emacs >24.3? 

I do.  It does exactly what NEWS says:

  *** The variable `smtpmail-auth-credentials' has been removed.
  By default, the information is now stored in the file ~/.authinfo.
  This was the default value of smtpmail-auth-credentials.  If you had
  customized smtpmail-auth-credentials to a list of user names and
  passwords, those settings are not used.  During your first connection
  to the smtp server, Emacs will prompt for the user name and password,
  and offer to save them to ~/.authinfo.  Or you can manually copy the
  credentials to ~/.authinfo.  For example, if you had

    (setq smtpmail-auth-credentials
	  '(("mail.example.org" 25 "jim" "s!cret")))

  then the equivalent line in ~/.authinfo would be

    machine mail.example.org port 25 login jim password s!cret

  See the auth-source manual for more information, e.g. on encrypting
  the credentials file.

  *** The variable `smtpmail-starttls-credentials' has been removed.
  If you had that set, you need to put

    machine smtp.whatever.foo port 25 key "~/.my_smtp_tls.key" cert "~/.my_smtp_tls.cert"

  in your ~/.authinfo file instead.

Re: > 24.3 can't send mail

[Tory S. Anderson]

Thanks for your help and suggestions. I managed to get it to send an email with one of my hosted smtp servers; I never did get it to work with the gmail smtp servers, though; it just seems to wait indefinitely and C-g brings the TLS error. I submitted a bug report for those. And I'm a far-cry from getting it going with my other half-dozen email addresses. Looks like I'll be sitting with 24.3 for a while. 

Thanks again,

FWIW, with this setup on Windows Emacs 24.4, I'm able to send emails, read via
IMAP and download emails through POP3.   Please try a similar setting
making sure you have a proper .authinfo file that Emacs can find and
with a new .gnus file.  This all goes into .gnus

Dynamically switching send-mail settings (WAS: > 24.3 can't send mail)

[Tory S. Anderson]

I'm very near to regaining my 24.3 Gnus send mail functionality of being able to dynamically send from any of my multiple addresses and having the server information change accordingly. Using the function below it does indeed change the server info at send-time, and there is a matching entry in .authinfo. But I receive the (mostly successful) output:

Sending via mail...
Failed to match ...
Failed to match ...
Failed to match ...
Failed to match ...
Setting SMTP server to `smtp.gmail2.com:587' for user <CORRECT-MATCH>
Opening TLS connection to `smtp.gmail2.com'...
Opening TLS connection with `gnutls-cli --insecure -p 587 smtp.gmail2.com'...failed

Opening TLS connection with `openssl s_client -connect smtp.gmail2.com:587 -no_ssl2 -ign_eof'...done

And, at that, it freezes with the final line in my message buffer until I C-g to safety. Any ideas why it freezes at this point, having done the dynamic setting correctly? Note that I've successfully sent with this account today before I started working on the dynamic switching, so I know the settings are otherwise correct. Below are the functions I'm using: 

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defvar smtp-accounts
'(
("me@mine.com" "mail.mine.com" 26);; Personal
("mail@me.com" "mail.mine3.com" 26);; Professional

	     finally (error "Cannot infer SMTP information."))))

Re: Dynamically switching send-mail settings

[Tory S. Anderson]

In this case it happens even if not a gmail account, and unfortunately a new day didn't fix it. Two questions: First, with this message:

    Opening TLS connection with `gnutls-cli --insecure -p 587 smtp.gmail2.com'...failed
    Opening TLS connection with `gnutls-cli --insecure -p 587 smtp.gmail2.com --protocols ssl3'...failed
    Opening TLS connection with `openssl s_client -connect smtp.gmail2.com:587 -no_ssl2 -ign_eof'...done

Is it expected to cycle through different TLS methods? 
Second, could my change be occurring too late? Right now I have my function on a hook as follows:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(add-hook 'message-send-hook 'change-smtp)
;(add-hook 'message-send-mail-hook 'change-smtp)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I've tried both hooks (one is supposed to be earlier in the send process) and the results don't change. The original version that worked <24.4 didn't use a hook it all; as far as I can tell it did some magic I don't understand with this:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defvar %smtpmail-via-smtp (symbol-function 'smtpmail-via-smtp))

(defun smtpmail-via-smtp (recipient smtpmail-text-buffer)
  (with-current-buffer smtpmail-text-buffer
    (change-smtp))
  (funcall (symbol-value '%smtpmail-via-smtp) recipient
	   smtpmail-text-buffer))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Is changing the server/port settings in one of the send-hooks too late? And what is that original magic with the symbols and symbol-function?

If you get these messages, then that means that your Emacs hasn't been
built with libgnutls support.

Re: Dynamically switching send-mail settings

[Tory S. Anderson]

Thanks Lars, 

After years of emailing in Gnus I didn't think that was an issue; I guess I thought gnutls was built in to Fedora, or I wouldn't have been working. Anyway, I sudo yum installed it and rebuilt emacs. Now I get a different set of errors:

    gnutls.c: [1] (Emacs) allocating credentials
    gnutls.c: [1] (Emacs) setting the trustfile:  /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt

    gnutls-negotiate: GnuTLS error: #<process smtpmail>, -15

I was happy to see the Diffie-Hellman alert; that's what I get on my working email setup. But what's with the gnutls errors now? Seems like I'm getting closer and closer...

I think this probably means that the SMTP server is closing the
connection for some reason or other.  Try setting `smtpmail-debug-info'
and look in the trace buffer to see whether it has anything interesting
to say.

Re: Dynamically switching send-mail settings

[Tory S. Anderson]

Thanks. I was able to fix this as part of a veritable ordeal. I'm not sure which things fixed this particular problem (I was trouble shooting various things at once), but steps included:
- Building emacs with gnutls support (which I hadn't originally realized wasn't being done)
- Ensuring that there were no blank lines separating authinfo entries
- Validating that my email-switching functions were on the correct sendmail hooks
- Ensuring that I was using consistent smtp-server port numbers between the .gnus config and the .authinfo entries
