Hello Alexandru,
I use a different set up...
I use fetchmail to pull down my gmail into my system's mail spool and
then gnus reads it from there, when I reply, gnus has to send it through
the gmail server and adjust the From: header.
(defun fs-change-smtp ()
"Change the SMTP server according to the current from line."
(save-excursion
(let ((from
(save-restriction
(message-narrow-to-headers)
(message-fetch-field "from"))))
(message "From is `%s', setting `smtpmail-smtp-server' to `%s'"
from
(cond
((string-match "psmerdon@gmail.com" from)
(setq sendmail-program "msmtp"))
(add-hook 'message-setup-hook 'fs-change-smtp))))))
You would have to of course install the program msmtp and create a
~/.msmtprc file:
account default
host smtp.gmail.com
auth on
user psmerdon@gmail.com
password MYPASSWORD
port 587
tls on
logfile ~/.msmtplog
Not sure if you want to go that route though. You might also try the
gnu.emacs.gnus newsgroup where you would definately get a better answer.
