I'm using BBDB with a recent CVS snapshot of MH-E. I've set up a mail-alias that refers to multiple entries in my BBDB database.
When I expand the mail alias in my To: field, it expands correctly, but I also see the following error: completion for "wb" unfound. >From a brief reading of the code and some preliminary testing, I'm led to guess that the error is being shown because expand-abbrev seems to be returning nil even on successful expansions. Or am I missing something?
