Just pulled the changes, now I'm confused. Could you update the info on
http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/GnusGmail#toc2 ? I get "Must issue a
STARTTLS command first" when I try to send a mail now. I just copied the
config over from the emacswiki page, and I have no idea how to tell the
new code to use STARTTLS.
