I used to be able to send mail using native Emacs under Windows but
now seem to have lost the ability, and get an error when I try
beginning with:
gnutls.c: [1] (Emacs) GnuTLS library not found
and indeed, evaluating (gnutls-available-p) yields nil.
On investigation, it appears that I can still send mail from my older
Emacs installation, which is:
This is GNU Emacs 24.4.1 (i686-pc-mingw32)
of 2014-10-24 on LEG570
The current version where it does not work is:
GNU Emacs 25.1.1 (i686-w64-mingw32)
of 2016-09-17
Can anyone shed light on this?

What does this show in Emacs 25.1.1:
M-: libgnutls-version RET
and what is the version of libgnutls DLL you have installed? These
two must match, so if they don't download and install the version
expected by the Emacs binary you have.

It seems you have a 32-bit copy of the gnutls library installed,
but not a 64-bit one. The newer version of Emacs is a 64-bit build,
so it needs libraries to match.

No, both of these binaries are 32-bit builds, as evidenced by the i686
prefix. The latter one was built using MinGW64 headers and libraries,
but in 32-bit mode.

Hmm... makes sense I suppose. I'll have to investigate.
