Eli,

could comment on this (your 2006-11-24 change to smtpmail.el), please?

Bye, Reiner.

I don't know why I used the NOMODIFY argument, but the code suggests I
had some reason at the time.  While I agree to removing it, can we
please wait until after the release?  I'd like to avoid unnecessarily
breaking the current code, even though the risk looks all but
nonexistent.

Agreed.

I've installed the change in Gnus (trunk and v5-10) to make
contrib/smtpmail.el work with Emacs 21 again.  Additionally, it now
errors out if used with Emacs 22+ or XEmacs.

Miles, please don't sync these changes to Emacs.  Is it feasible to
sync other future changes from Emacs to Gnus, but keep these [1]
differences in place?

The following entry was missing in contrib/ChangeLog in the trunk:

2007-02-20  Juanma Barranquero  <lekktu@gmail.com>

	* smtpmail.el (smtpmail-smtp-service, smtpmail-queue-index-file):
	Fix typos in docstrings.
	(smtpmail-local-domain, smtpmail-queue-mail): Doc fixes.

In the CVS logs of revision 7.7 and 7.1.2.7, this ChangeLog entry
isn't included.

Bye, Reiner.

Of course.

If _no_ (future) changes to smtpmail.el should be copied between Emacs
and Gnus, then I could just change the arch-tag: in contrib/smtpmail.el,
which will effectively make them different files.

[Syncing applies _changes_ to files (using patches), so it's quite
possible to drop one change but still apply future changes.]

Good.  So let's try to continue syncing the `smtpmail.el'.

Bye, Reiner.
