Patch to g-auth

["Tim Cross" <tcross@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Raman,

can you send me a copy of your .authinfo.gpg file (with passwrods X'd out) and
in plain text (not encrypted). I suspect the issue may be with the 'port'
settings in the authinfo file. With that info, I can play around with my setup
to mimic what you have and narrow down the issue. 

Note that I expect you should have two lines in your .authinfo file, one for
your smtp credentials and one for google reader (which has port set to
'reader'). What may be occuring is confusion between the two and we may need to
do something like add either a port value for your smtp auth line or add
something to the greader auth line to ensure the two are easily distinguished.

Any fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a
touch of genius (and a lot of courage) to move in the opposite direction.
