Multiple Email Addresses in user-mail-address

Multiple Email Addresses in user-mail-address

[Husain Alshehhi]

In gnus, 'f' (gnus-summary-followup) responds to everyone in an
email. If someone sends an email to a@example.com, and b@example.com,
and both are owned by me, how can I let 'f' know that it should not
include a@example.com and b@example.com?

In the normal case, when I own a single email address, this can be done
by setting user-mail-address. Gnus respects this value and automatically
exclude this address from TO and CC. But I am not sure how to do this
when I own two email addresses.

You can set message-dont-reply-to-names to a regex, list of regexes, or a
function that matches all of the addresses that you want to exclude.  For
example:

(custom-set-variables
 '(message-dont-reply-to-names
   (mapconcat 'regexp-quote
              '("eagle@eyrie.org" "rra@debian.org")
              "\\|")))

Thank you.  This worked!
