Sorry. Uhm ... what applies? As a mailing list, this is ding@gnus.org so you can do in ~/.mailrc alias ding "ding and use that in the To: header (and others). As a newsgroup (the Newsgroups: and Followup-To: headers) it is gmane.emacs.gnus.general tho which won't expand there, one way is then to do for example ;;; (kill-all-abbrevs) (let ((write '(("ding" "gmane.emacs.gnus.general") ;; ... ))) (define-abbrev-table 'global-abbrev-table write )) but optimally one would want to do that in mailrc as well IMO. -- underground experts united https://dataswamp.org/~incal
