Re: resend message: Wrong type argument: stringp, mail-user-name
Gijs Hillenius g...@hillenius.net writes: `name' is not provided according to your backtrace. So I guess you have somewhere in your init file (setq user-full-name 'mail-user-name) whereas you probably wanted to write (setq user-full-name mail-user-name) That is, you accidentally set `user-full-name' to the symbol mail-user-name instead to the value of that variable. I have it set as described in the manual: (setq user-full-name Your Name) But, eh, I also use message-alternative-emails which the manual shows takes precedence over styles that ran off message-setup-hook. Perhaps that is what throws the spanner? Hm, well, maybe. The problem is that some variable that's intended to contain the user name as a string actually contains the symbol mail-user-name. I've just grepped the emacs and gnus sources, and there the symbol mail-user-name doesn't occur at all, so it's some local customization of yours or maybe a third-party package that causes the issue. But you can use `apropos-value' to find variables that contain a value whose print representation matches a given regex. So what does M-x apropos-value RET ^mail-user-name$ RET list?

If you have your own mail address configured (IIRC with user-mail-address), gnus automatically removes it. Otherwise, you can use C-c C-f t, command message-reduce-to-to-cc while editing the message and after S W. -- Alberto ___ info-gnus-english mailing list info-gnus-english@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english
Problem with encoding in header
Hello, From recently, I've a problem when sending mail or posting with gnus: it doesn't seem to quote the accentuated letter anymore in header, making Emacs ask me about what encoding I want for them, and from time to time the mail will be reject from some server (debian.org) claiming it doesn't respect the RFC. I'm using gnus from Emacs 24.4 as packaged in debian sid as of today (November the 21). And I've no idea of the source of the problem. -- Rémi Vanicat ___ info-gnus-english mailing list info-gnus-english@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english

Strange, I don't remember something changing in this area recently; my quite old Gnus settings work fine with recent versions of Emacs... Could you give additional details about the problem? What is the precise error message you get? Maybe the main settings you have in .emacs and .gnus.el about encodings (did you customize gnus-group-posting-charset-alist ?).

I'm using gnus from Emacs 24.4 as packaged in debian sid as of today (November the 21). And I've no idea of the source of the problem. I am using Emacs 24.4 from Debian sid and Gnus from git, and I always have an 'ø' in my headers, so I would have noticed if it was happening to me as well...
