Reported by Jonathan Glauner DU> <jglauner(a)sbum.org&gt;. Good news, although I did not dare to use the smtpmail.el as found in the GNU Emacs CSV, but I included the new code which was added to the Funktion smtpmail-read-response, that is (catch 'done (while response-continue (goto-char smtpmail-read-point) (while (not (search-forward "\r\n" nil t)) (unless (memq (process-status process) '(open run)) (throw 'done nil)) (accept-process-output process) (goto-char smtpmail-read-point)) And this indeed SOLVED the problem. Please could this code be included in the xemacs pkg.
