Subject: `send-mail-function' default change
Date: Wed, 06 Jul 2011 17:38:25 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <m3liwbto5q.fsf@quimbies.gnus.org> (raw)

As previously discussed, the default of `send-mail-function' changes to
`sendmail-query-once'.  I'm checking in this change in a few minutes,
but you'll probably have to say "make clean; make" for it to happen,
since it uses the special `custom-initialize-delay' initialiser, which
means that loaddefs.el has to change in some unspecified way.

Anyway, after this has happened in your Emacs, you will be prompted for
how email is to be sent (once), and the choice will be saved via
`customize'.

I realise that this is a controversial change, but it seems like there's
a rough consensus² that this is the right thing to do.  Give it a whirl
and report back any problems, and give suggestions for how this should
work better.
