Re: How to strip names out of To: and CC:

[jidanni@jidanni.org]

Dear Gnus Pals: I have changed the function message-get-reply-headers.
I have put the new version, all 200+ lines of it, in my .gnus.el file.

;;jidanni changed
;;	       (cons (downcase (mail-strip-quoted-names addr)) addr))
;;to
	       (cons (downcase (mail-strip-quoted-names addr))
		     (downcase (mail-strip-quoted-names addr))))
;;to avoid looking like a fool, even more consistantly than
;;mail-extr-ignore-realname-equals-mailbox-name and
;;mail-extr-ignore-single-names could, before gnus ignored them anyway

Of course you, the authors, could kindly add one little variable, say
message-austere-to-cc-reply, to toggle so we can avoid having to
redefine the whole hundreds line function.

No, this one line change cannot be done with one line in some hook, so
forget that.
