Thanks, So it would not make sense if BBDB was using the encoded headers. If it's guaranteed that headers returned by gnus-fetch-field are already decoded, it is not even necessary that bbdb-message-header calls mail-decode-encoded-word-string for these headers. > > Which headers are not available via gnus-fetch-field? > > As you might have guessed, this is customizable in Gnus. See (info > "(gnus)Hiding Headers"). But that's strange: by default, gnus-visible-headers includes the organization header. Leo started this thread because gnus-fetch-field did not return it. So what's happening here? Leo, have you possibly customized the value of this variable?
