From: Pierre Neidhardt <mail <at> ambrevar.xyz> To: 34011 <at> debbugs.gnu.org Subject: bug#34011: 26.1; smtpmail-try-auth-method: wrong-type-argument characterp Á¢\203^M^@ÀÁ¢À¢!_\210À¢\207 Date: Mon, 07 Jan 2019 20:15:25 +0100
Once in a while, I get the following error when I try to send an e-mail.
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument characterp "\301\242\203\015\0\300\301\242\300\242!\240\210\300\242\207")

The above "wrong character" reads as "Á¢\203^M^@ÀÁ¢À¢!_\210À¢\207" in ASCII (the
^- and \-prefixed characters are not printable). I think it's always the same
string.
The error persists if I try to resend. However, I've noticed that trying to
resend the mail some time later (1 hour or so) may succeed. Rebooting also
seems to work all the time, but re-logging does not always work.
I use mu4e 1.0c.
I've noticed this issue only recently and it might coincide with the change of
router. Indeed, I haven't yet experienced this issue when connecting my laptop
to a different router.
My SMTP configuration:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(smtpmail-smtp-server . "mail.gandi.net")
(smtpmail-stream-type . starttls)
(smtpmail-smtp-service . 587)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
A friend of mine had the same issue, only on my routeur, with Gmail and
mu4e.
Any clue? Any pointer?
