Hi,

I would like to fetch the articles of a https RSS flux which needs
credentials using Gnus. I tried the traditional method, but I receive
something like
https: protocol unsupported

Is it possible or am I again asking for something which is really
impossible?

Thanks!

The url package is used to get HTTP and HTTPS resources. Look at the
end of url-http.el, where there is a macro that defines the HTTPS
methods. Basically it's a (let ((url-gateway-method 'tls)) around the
regular methods. So do toggle-debug-on-error and see where the error
is. If you can reduce it to a single url call, so much the better, but
it may be inside nnrss.el after all.

Thanks
Ted
