Problems in sending mail using GNUS: emacs-unicode-2 and Head branch

[dhruva]

Hi,
I am using GNU Emacs (emacs-unicode-2) on GNU/Linux. When I use GNUS
to send a mail using feedmail, I get the following error. Due to this,
I am unable to send mails. I am using IMAP and SMTP to access/send
mails. This used to work earlier (when I was working on windows box).

In the *Message* buffer:
Sending via mail...
Loading feedmail...done
FQM: Message action (q, i, d, e, ?)? [queue]:
FQM: Immediate send...
smtpmail-try-auth-methods: Wrong type argument: stringp, nil

I set debug-on-error and got the following log:
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument stringp nil)
 base64-encode-string(nil t)
 smtpmail-try-auth-methods(#<process SMTP> (auth=login (auth gssapi
ntlm login) 8bitmime enhancedstatuscodes dsn etrn size)
