I am using GNUS to read my news but also wanted to use it to send mail and
messages to news groups. The problem is that I want to use gmail for sending
 and recieving. For this reason I installed cygwin with the ssl and gnutls
(gmail requires tls) packages (+defaults) but it still doesn't work.
GNUS finds the utilities but halts or gives me an error.
I just want to know if anyone have succeeded in doing this? I know it works
under Linux but the gnutls-cli utility is a later version in Linux.

sincerely

System: WinXP, Emacs 22.0.50.1 (cvs) on XP and GNUS 5.11.
