From a very cursory reading, I'd say your .netrc is wrong - it should
look like this:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
machine "A taste of linux" login boudiccas password rhubarbandcustard
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Untested and with no warranty, express, implied or otherwise - in
particular I don't know if the spaces in the "machine" name cause
problems. OTOH, I think netrc.el parses it correctly. And I hope that
the password is either fictitious or you are going to change it asap.
