Agreed, though personally I haven't been able to get smtpmail to work
for my university's mail server. Using smtpmail-send-it with no other
customizations, attempting to send mail returns a "sending failed:
relaying denied" error.
The mail server requires authenticated smtp, which is pretty common
nowadays; for sendmail-send-it, I've got postfix set up for sasl auth.
I see that smtpmail is supposed to support authenticated smtp, but
changing smtpmail-stream-type to `starttls' didn't work, either:
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "No process")
signal(error ("No process"))
error("No process")
set-buffer-process-coding-system(raw-text-unix raw-text-unix)
byte-code(...)
smtpmail-via-smtp(("address@hidden") #<buffer smtpmail temp>)
smtpmail-send-it()
message-smtpmail-send-it()
message-send-mail(nil)
message-send-via-mail(nil)
message-send(nil)
message-send-and-exit(nil)
It would be nice to get these issues ironed out if we're gonna be using
smtpmail as the default.
