Yes, I do.

The problem is this call that's done the second time with
`ask-for-password' set to t.  Then it will return the previous (wrong)
password for some reason or other...

(auth-source-search
 :host "smtp.gmail.com"
 :port "587"
 :user nil
 :max 1
 :require (and ask-for-password
               '(:user :secret))
 :create ask-for-password)
