| This is probably the important part:
| |   To actually define the aliases which are stored in the BBDB, call the
| |function `bbdb-define-all-aliases' from your `mail-setup-hook'.  This

Er, no, of course not. :-/

However, adding

  (add-hook 'mail-setup-hook 'bbdb-define-all-aliases)

doesn't have any effect (I'm running gnus 5.8.8, btw).

And if I run bbdb-define-all-aliases by hand, subsequent attempts to
type a '-' or space in the To: line of a message result in:

  Signaling: (wrong-type-argument vectorp t)
    mapatoms(mail-resolve-all-aliases-1 t)
    mail-resolve-all-aliases()
    sendmail-pre-abbrev-expand-hook()
    run-hooks(pre-abbrev-expand-hook)

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
