I see that works right off on linux, but do you know how its done on
windows 7.

Can all that be handled inside gnus, using gnus pkgs? Or, is it really
necessary to install pkgs for windows 7?

Googling for windows pkgs of gnutls-cli or openssl.  What's
available, is confusing.  

Some of the pkgs available appear to be only for 32 bit, some seem pretty
shakey as to being appropriate to windows7 and onward.

Are there 64 bit pkgs that are known to work on win7 without lots of
tweaking and fiddling?
