Rather it is a new buffer built up from 'gnus-original-article-buffer' (the raw article). BBDB notices things in the gnus-article-buffer where the unseen headers don't exist so it can't notice changes. The headers aren't really hidden at all, they just aren't there. Robert's function switches to the raw article buffer and fools BBDB into thinking that it is the normal article buffer. All the headers are there, so everything gets noticed. And the (save-excursion ...) is so we come back to where we started from (the normal article buffer) once BBDB is finished. How close am I to getting that right, Robert? -- |---<Steve Youngs>---------------<GnuPG KeyID: 10D5C9C5>---| | XEmacs - It's not just an editor. | | It's a way of life. | |------------------------------------<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>---| _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bbdb-info BBDB Home Page: http://bbdb.sourceforge.net/
