That kind of default reminds me of the old Emacs default to not allow copy&paste between Emacs and other apps. Probably countless Emacs newbies turned away from Emacs because of this... Its a kind of a bondage & submission approach to usability - make them beginners suffer at first ... (just kidding ;) Thanks for you tips, I just copied your code to my .gnus and it works like you described it, and now I do have the 'wanted interference' I expected. cheers -- Thorsten ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ RSA(R) Conference 2012 Save $700 by Nov 18 Register now http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsa-sfdev2dev1 _______________________________________________ bbdb-info@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bbdb-info BBDB Home Page: http://bbdb.sourceforge.net/
