But the name "package-get-remote-filename" is a little bit confusing. But you have modified this method so it can handle non-remote filenames too - that's ok (for now...)

pop3-version "2.03" password caching defeated by nnmail.el 26 years, 3 months

Adrian Aichner

Hello Andy, thanks for the great UIDL support, it make life much easier! Password caching, however, still doesn't work because `nnmail-pop3-movemail' sets pop3-password from nnmail-pop-password, which is not cached. Should pop3.el have it's own substitute for nnmail-pop3-movemail, perhaps named pop3-pop3-movemail until nnmail is fixed? The comment ;; To use this with gnus add: ;; (setq nnmail-movemail-program 'nnmail-pop3-movemail) ;; to your .emacs in pop3.el would have to change then too. Regards, Adrian (defun nnmail-pop3-movemail (inbox crashbox) "Function to move mail from INBOX on a pop3 server to file CRASHBOX." (let ((pop3-maildrop (substring inbox (match-end (string-match "^po:" inbox)))) (pop3-password (or nnmail-pop-password (nnmail-read-passwd (format "Password for %s: " inbox))))) (pop3-movemail crashbox))) -- Adrian Aichner European Design Center Teradyne GmbH Semiconductor Test Group Telephone +49/89/41861(0)-208 Dingolfinger Strasse 2 Fax +49/89/41861-217 (What is a Fax?)

No, the body is a test whether the file we are looking for exists at this location so it should be executed unless we are not allowed to look there. In other words the body should be executed unless it is both a remote path and no-remote is non-nil. That is exactly what I expressed in that statement. > no-remote caar entries your (unless ... my (if ... > ------------------------------------------------------------------ > nil nil yes no > nil other yes yes > t nil yes no > t other no no The results from the "(unless" table are exactly what was wanted.

It's possible I've misunderstood some things, but I think: no-remote - nil -> remote connections allowed t -> no remote connections allowed caar entries - nil -> local path other -> remote path The unless body should be executed only if remote connections are allowed and it's a remote path, right? This gives the table (I am using "(if (and (not no-remote) (caar entries))" from my other posting): no-remote caar entries your (unless ... my (if ... ------------------------------------------------------------------ nil nil yes no nil other yes yes t nil yes no t other no no The "(unless...)" allows to enter the body if remote connections are allowed but it's a local path. So I think my "(if ...)" is correct. > It is just that package-get-remote-file-name cannot handle local > filenames, which it should. How on earth could this bug have been > left dormant so long? I guess installing a local package will not be happen very often. Most people will use either efs (broken on WinNT) or have installed the packages already.

Segfault 26 years, 3 months

This bug report will be sent to the XEmacs Development Team, not to your local site managers!!
