Does it require Emacs 24? As Julien said: It does require Emacs 24. But you can bind `org-contacts-message-complete-function' directly to a key (You need to wrap it though) and bypass `completion-at-point-functions': #+begin_src emacs-lisp (add-to-hook 'message-mode-hook (lambda () (local-set-key (kbd "TAB") (lambda () (interactive) (org-contacts-message-complete-function) #+end_src Michael pgpCeA28sBYjT.pgp Description: PGP signature

Since I always expect unexpected things to happen when upgrading, I would rather go directly to Emacs 24 when its more or less stable already - and thats what it seems to be. I might use the opportunity to change from 32bit to 64bit, from Ubuntu to Arch Linux (which looks good) and from Gnome to Stump-WM. That looks like a nice combination to me. Cheers -- Thorsten

Thats the culprit - I use Emacs 23.1.1, and it seems that variable completion-at-point-functions has been added to Emacs just recently with version 23.2.

(caveat: I have never used org-contacts) In such cases, typically there is an insinuate function. Yes, there is one (org-contacts-gnus-insinuate) Try adding that to .emacs or eval it.

[O] [contacts] No completion in Gnus
Hello List, I have a org-contacts file with a few contacts with EMAIL property, taken from gnus using org-capture as described in the org-contacts manual. The contacts are tagged with some tags. But if I try to send an email to one of the contacts using completion in message-mode, nothing happens. I type + and press in the To: header, but to no avail. I even restarted Emacs without loading bbdb, since there seemed to be some interference, but that didn't help either. I cannot find any more variables to connect org-contacts with gnus, so I guess it should work out of the box. What might be wrong in this case? Thanks for any hints. PS One further org-contacts related question: there is a predefined property ADDRESS, without any inner structure. Am I supposed to write my own org-capture template for that property? How would that look like - just one single string? If I want something more structured (street, city, zip-code etc), I have to define one property for each info-piece, or is there something like a compound property? -- Thorsten
