Exactly :)
The only tricky case is explained in (info "(auth) Help for users")
The typical netrc line example is without a port.
machine YOURMACHINE login YOU password YOURPASSWORD
This will match any authentication port. Simple, right? But what if
there’s a SMTP server on port 433 of that machine that needs a different
password from the IMAP server?
machine YOURMACHINE login YOU password SMTPPASSWORD port 433
machine YOURMACHINE login YOU password GENERALPASSWORD
I hope that helps. Closing this as done, but please let me know if the
auth-source manual or docstrings need improvement.
Thank you
Ted
