However, when I do: gnus-group-get-new-news ~nine out of ten times it says: Mail source (pop :user moasen :password *** pop.zoho.com :port 995) error (USER moasen not valid). Continue? (yes or no) Here, it is unclear (to me) what the difference between "yes" and "no" is. Because it would seem news *always* works, and mail *never* works when I get that question, with no other difference noticable. As for the error itself, it would appear an incorrect diagnostic because the ~tenth time, it *does* work and I do get the mail with no complaints! So I end up hammering the fetch command until it works - very annoying, indeed! When I do get the message, after it says: Mail source (pop :user moasen :password XYZ :server pop.zoho.com :port 995) failed: (error Cannot get new mail) I have tried to access the mail thru their web interface, as well as their smartphone app, with no problems.
