Hi 

When I receive email from github it is displayed in my summary buffer as

[]{ }R  98330 [ +reply+ABN] fragut01/C  [Re: [fragut01/CS_tutorial]

However when opening the message the from looks 

From: User1 <notifications@github.com>

What is the reason for this strange display?

How can we know without seeing how you've configured
`gnus-summary-line-format'?

Uff your are right.

Here comes the setting, 


"[%uM]{%ug}%U%R%z%I%N %(%[ %-10,10uB%]%) %-10,10~(form (rfc2047-decode-string (gnus-extra-header 'To)))@  [%-25,25s%] %D %k %L   \n"

however it seems that the culprit is bbdb, at some
point a generic github address was added to the database confusing the
display of other mails from github. I deleted all these entries and now,
for the moment it is working ok
