Using Gnus 0.42 and posting styles I managed to (somehow) contrive to have the variable user-mail-address set to nil; this caused Gnus to fail doing a string comparison when loading gnus-sum.el I don't know if this is a real bug or not, hence this post rather than a direct bug report. I will happily submit one if that would be useful. Secondly, I am currently working on a utility to automatically import vCard records into the BBDB when using Gnus. I do have one question about this though - what is the best place to hook my code into Gnus? I want to be able to read as a string the vCard record from the article, then pass that on to a nice generic function; I am currently thinking that a hook on gnus-article-display-hook would be the best solution. I would like to know if there is a better way to do this that I have not seen, however. As a side note, I want this to run automatically when there is a vCard record, not just when I elect to view that entity. NB. Lars (and other developers) - you guys are doing a great job, thanks.
