I'm in the process of upgrading my desktop machine, and along with that comes `stunnel' version 4, which uses a configuration file rather than command line options. (What a PITA!) Previously, with VM 7.07 and `stunnel' 3, I set the following command line options: ;; By default, `stunnel' logs many uninteresting messages to the ;; `syslog' facility. Shut up! (setq vm-stunnel-program-switches (list "-D0" "-o" "/dev/null")) These no longer work with `stunnel' version 4; to get the equivalent effect, I need to add the following lines to the generated configuration file: debug = 0 output = /dev/null Unfortunately, VM 7.18 doesn't have any user options for inserting extra stuff into the configuration file that it generates. So, there's my feature request: a variable `vm-stunnel-program-config' or somesuch. It would also be useful if the variable `vm-stunnel-program-switches' were consulted only for `stunnel' version 3, since AFAIK, version 4 has no switches of interest. This would make it somewhat easier to set up a `.vm' that works with both versions of `stunnel'. Of course, the variable documentation strings and the user manual should be updated to reflect when the different `stunnel' configuration variables are used.
