Please consider to pull in the var `nsm-settings-file` for `smtpmail-async.el`

Hello,

please consider to pull in the var nsm-settings-file for smtpmail-async.el.

If this var is not set, sending fails since the enhanced network security (TLS/SSL certificate validity and the like) since Emacs 25.1.

All best, emelin

What is nsm-setting-file ? I don't have this variable here on emacs-25.2 and it seems I can send email (this one) without problems throught smtp-mail-async.

Well, nsm stands for Network Security Manager which I found kind of documented there: https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/emacs/Network-Security.html

If you like to send mail via a mail server asking for an SSL connection, but the SSL certificate appears to be 'untrusted' then (by default) smtpmail-send-it needs to be able to lookup its fingerprint as an exception in the file pointed to by the nsm-settings-file.

If you haven't got in this situation yet (like me for a long time ;-), you probably have never noticed nsm.

Thanks, got it.

Can you try if modifying async-smtpmail-send-it like this:

@@ -64 +64 @@ It is called just before calling `smtpmail-send-it'.")
-            "\\`\\(smtpmail\\|async-smtpmail\\|\\(user-\\)?mail\\)-\\|auth-sources\\|epg"
+            "\\`\\(smtpmail\\|async-smtpmail\\|\\(user-\\)?mail\\)-\\|auth-sources\\|epg\\|nsm"

is working for you ?
