>From the perspective of BBDB, outgoing messages are not "from gnus" or "from rmail", but what matters is what emacs mode handles the outgoing messages. For gnus, this has long been message-mode, whereas rmail has used mail-mode. This translates into initializing 'message and / or 'mail. I believe, more recently there have been plans to outphase mail-mode and only use message-mode. Yet with my GNU emacs 25.2, message-mode and mail-mode still appear to be distinct modes. In any case, check the mode in one of your buffers with outgoing mail and make sure that BBDB is initialized for this mode the way you want it. If it turns out that both your rmail and your gnus use message-mode for outgoing mails, I do not see a simple possibility to teach BBDB to treat such buffers differently. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ bbdb-info@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bbdb-info BBDB Home Page: http://bbdb.sourceforge.net/
