Thanks, it gives me some idea what the code is supposed to do. However, I have not used this code in bbdb-gnus.el and it is quite possible that something got broken in this code that has not yet been noticed / fixed. It would be good if a more experienced gnus user could take a look. Note also that the default value of bbdb/gnus-split-myaddr-regexp references the variable gnus-local-domain which is obsolete since emacs 24.1. This suggests to me once more that the relevant code in bbdb-gnus.el could benefit from a more careful review by an experienced gnus user.
