If you want to use your hipatia.net account as a normal IMAP-account (the mail lives on the server), you should not set mail-sources. If you want to use IMAP as a POP-on-stereoids (i.e. download all messages from the server and store them locally; unlikely), you should only set mail-sources, not a select-method. > (setq gnus-select-method '(nntp "news.gmane.org") Here you overwrite the value you set gnus-select-method to previously!! > user-mail-address "aurelien@hipatia.net") I think this is why you get that string in your From: header. Hope this helps a little bit. Best regards, Adam -- "What do you feel Adam Sjøgren When you let go of the wheel" asjo@koldfront.dk
