Sorry it didn't work for you, although I'm not surprised. It was a bit
of a hack. For me, it works but only
with cygwin and windows, and not on ubuntu. I'm afraid I don't have
the resources or the knowledge to
fix this up better than currently.

It's a worry for me; my email existence is hanging by the thread of a
bad hack. Some day soon, our
server config will change, and I'll be left without email. I don't
understand why Gnus can read email
straightforwardly with openssl, but not send it. Nor what everyone
else using Gnus to send mail is
doing. Is there another option that I am not aware of?
