*** Emacs can be compiled with libgnutls support
This is the default. You will then be able to use the functionality
in gnutls.el, namely the `open-gnutls-stream' and `gnutls-negotiate'
functions. It's easiest to use these functions through
`open-network-stream' because it can upgrade connections through
STARTTLS opportunistically or use plain SSL, depending on your needs.
Only versions 2.8.x and higher or GnuTLS have been tested.
*** gnutls-log-level
Set `gnutls-log-level' higher than 0 to get debug output. 1 is for
important messages, 2 is for debug data, and higher numbers are as per
the GnuTLS logging conventions. The output is in *Messages*.
