Re: [bug-mailutils] Unable to access gmail imap

[Carlos Pita]

Hi Sergey,

thank you very much for the fix, I tested the patched rmail.el with:

(setq rmail-primary-inbox-list
      '("imaps://address@hidden:993/INBOX"))
(setq rmail-pop-password-required t)
(setq rmail-preserve-inbox t)

And it worked just fine out of the box.

Have you write access to the emacs repo? Do you want me to attach your
patch to the bug report? Btw, my report is somewhat misguiding since
at first I thought the problem was a different, lower priority, one:
lack of support for imaps. It turned out to be a more severe issue so
it may be convenient to refile the bug with a new header and
description and invalidate the previous report.

I meant an example using imaps to connect gmail, as it's such a popular case.

Best regards
