Re: Help setting up POP3 email (rmail)

[cptvlaze]

It does not seem to work :( I'm attaching my code, just for revision...

;; Firstly setup SMTP.
(require 'smtpmail)
(setq send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it)
      smtpmail-smtp-server "mail.foomail.com"
      smtpmail-smtp-service 587
      user-mail-address "foo@foomail")
;; The line below puts sent items into an mbox file.
(setq mail-default-headers "FCC: ~/Mail/Sent")
;; This puts my name correctly in email To/From lines.
(setq user-full-name "Fooname Barname")

;; Setup Rmail
(setq rmail-primary-inbox-list
      (cons (concat "pop3://"
                    "foo@foomail.com"
                    "foopassword"
                    "@mail.foomail.com") nil))


---------
Now I'm getting:

load-with-code-conversion: Invalid read syntax: ")"
Ah, and emacs tells me to 'Send Mail via Gnus Mail'. I guess this code
is for gnus, isn't it?
Thank you for your attention!
