I am using emacs 21.3 and I have the following problem. Sending mail using gnus gives me "wrong type argument: stringp, nil" and the cursor jumps to "From:" which is me. My mail is rejected and sent to draft. All my incoming mails are marked "O". Even after unmarking them, when I restart my emacs and gnus, mails are still marked "O". ............... The following the trace I found: ;;+OK AVG POP3 Proxy Server <23908.1114410983@mp026> 7.0.307/7.0.308 [266.10.2]"" ;;+OK May I have your password, please? ;;+OK mailbox has 0 messages (0 octets) ;;+OK mailbox has 0 messages (0 octets) ;;. ;;+OK bye Process POP exited abnormally with code 256 .......... Finally I can not exit gnus and it emacs hangs up showing "wrong type argument: stringp, nil" in the mini buffer. I hope somebody can give me a hint on how to overcome these problems. Thanks a lot -- Mahdi Osman (PhD)
