Subject: 26.0.50; ERC doesn't use auth-source for NickServ password
Date: Tue, 16 May 2017 07:43:23 -0600

ERC uses erc-nickserv-passwords to store passwords used for
authenticating to NickServ.  It would be nice if it could also use
auth-source to get this information, so I could store my NickServ
passwords elsewhere.

Hello, Tom.

According to (info "(erc) Connecting") auth-sources should work out of 
box. I've been using it for a long time.

This of course is for the general case, where your erc server 
credentials are not different from your NickServ credentials.

I must have misread, since I tried your suggestion and it worked.
So, I'm closing this.  Thanks.
