email and gmail


I am trying, fruitlessly, to get the email program to work with my gmail account. I have ssmtp working fine (I did need to do some patching and recompile ssmtp). The email program, on the other hand, is just slightly beyond me. :-(

My debugging indicates that email is not passing the parameters (username/password) to ssmtp to initiate the TLS/SSL connection. This from the following error message:
email: FATAL: Smtp error: 530 5.7.0 Must issue a STARTTLS command first f16sm6837732qba


Are there any builds of email available that pass parameters correctly to ssmtp? I indicate SMTP server in the email-config dialog -- is that wrong?

I look forward to your reply!

Jeremy
