What was missing in the situation of multiple mail addresses was simply (setq bbdb-complete-mail-allow-cycling t) I'd like to stress that I find the default value nil of previous expression badly chosen, why inhibit the users from this functionality? (Moreover when the customisation is so difficult to find.) I think bbdb3 is too cautious and humble from time to time for such an important package, e. g. with the colon command (:) in a Gnus group buffer. When there is no entry for the respective mail address the command does just nothing! Why is it necessary to supply a prefix argument only to be *queried* if I want to add this address to the database? The query should be there right from the beginning and an immediate action with a prefix argument. Just my 2 ยข ;-) thanks for bbdb3.

how to choose from multiple email addresses in message buffer
Hello, how can I select the appropriate mail address from an entry with multiple mail addresses? When I'm completing a name with TAB in a gnus message buffer only the first mail addresses is added. Retyping TAB has no effect...

But this might not be exactly the thing you are looking for. Right, it should work in a mail buffer as well and not only in bbdb. You might get what you want by switching on 'company-mode'. This mode works already with bbdb and allows you to pick any email address out of BBDB. Company mode is available as elpa package and IMHO that mode is really amazing. Company-mode!?
