;;; Commentary:

;; This is the auth-source.el package.  It lets users tell Gnus how to
;; authenticate in a single place.  Simplicity is the goal.  Instead
;; of providing 5000 options, we'll stick to simple, easy to
;; understand options.

;; Easy setup:
;; (require 'auth-source)
;; (customize-variable 'auth-sources) ;; optional

;; now, whatever sources you've defined for password have to be available

;; if you want encrypted sources, which is strongly recommended, do
;; (require 'epa-file)
;; (epa-file-mode)

;; before you put some data in ~/.authinfo.gpg (the default place)
