I'm not sure what isn't working, but I run M-x irc and it brings up the usual irc buffer with a lengthy intro message. It sets my nick to my username, which isn't my irc registered nick so I then issue the command /nick ActualNick and then it tells me to identify, as expected. But then, I issue the command /msg NickServ identify <passwd> and nothing happens! After that I can type /me and see that my nick is ActualNick but nothing else - why would this be happening?

  • To rule out the server as the cause, is this currently working in a non-Emacs IRC client? (or, if you only have Emacs, with `M-x erc`?) – phils Apr 22 '13 at 01:09

You may try starting IRC using C-u M-x irc. This will prompt for connection details.
