Hrv> crypt.el is known to prompt for password on gzip and tar files.  Be

- I don't use jka-compr. 
- tar-mode is automatically loaded (in the default auto-mode-alist).
- If I can't mix crypt.el and tar-mode, how can I read a gzipped tar 
  file in XEmacs? It used to work before.

Hrv> When you enter `xemacs -q' and evaluate (require 'crypt), can you load

No.

   xemacs -q -no-site-file
   (require 'crypt)
   M-x find-file procmail.tar.gz

I get the binary characters.
