On a TO: field SPACE expands bbdb alias; while on a Newsgroups fields is does not. So I thought of binding shift tab to (local-set-key [(iso-left-tab)] 'message-expand-group) However that seems not to work I obtain an error --88--- Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument commandp message-expand-group) call-interactively(message-expand-group) recursive-edit() byte-code("..."

Well if gnus is in the summary of a certain newsgroup gnus-summary-post-news automatically inserts the correct Newsgroups name. However sometimes I want to send a mail to a newsgroup and I am not in that group so this does not work. As for your recommendation the first variable gives --88--- `message-completion-alist' is a variable declared in Lisp. -- loaded from "message" Value: (("^\\(Newsgroups\\|Followup-To\\|Posted-To\\|Gcc\\):" . message-expand-group) ("^\\(Resent-\\)?\\(To\\|B?Cc\\):" . message-expand-name) ("^\\(Reply-To\\|From\\|Mail-Followup-To\\|Mail-Copies-To\\):" . message-expand-name) ("^\\(Disposition-Notification-To\\|Return-Receipt-To\\):" . message-expand-name)) --8 8--- Now I use (add-hook 'mail-setup-hook 'bbdb-define-all-aliases) (add-hook 'gnus-message-setup-hook 'bbdb-define-all-aliases) ;Version:1.35 (add-hook 'message-setup-hook 'bbdb-define-all-aliases) ;Version:1.35 Which expands an alias hitting space. Now how am I suppose to use message-expand-group? It is not an interactive function, put it in some hook? Uwe - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
