I was wondering why jabber.el didn't cache my password, even though I set password-cache and password-cache-expiry correctly, and found the reason: jabber.el checks whether the running Emacs is new enough to have password-cache.el by (fboundp 'password-read), but this function is not autoloaded. The problem is masked if you use Gnus. Thus I propose that at least `password-read' be autoloaded, possibly others as well. (Accusations of me being a misguided elisp programmer are welcome, especially with suggestions of better ways to check for this feature.) Maguns
