I don't understand why this would be necessary. What kind of error do
you get when you omit this?
You have to create the field in the BBDB, of course.

You could try something like (untested)
(setq gnus-posting-styles
'(
((or (string-match (rx (or "DevelopmentEmail" "emacs" ))
gnus-newsgroup-name)
(DE-bbdb-match-field-recipient 'email-type "GWDG"))
(name "Richard Riley")
(address "[email protected]")
(from "Richard Riley <[email protected]>"))))
