You know, I think I just noticed that it hasn't been working for me recently. *pokes around* Hmm, gnus-article-prepare-hook is empty. It should not be. I note that bbdb-insinuate-gnus also sticks an entry in gnus-save-newsrc-hook, which is still there. And calling bbdb-insinuate-gnus now gets the right value. I don't see gnus overwriting that value, hmm. I notice that you're using tm too. Hmm, I see that tm explicitly removes any occurance of bbdb/gnus-udpate-record and seems to replace it with tm-bbdb/update-record added to gnus-article-display-hook. Okie, that's there. Oh, it uses tm-bbdb/auto-create-p, not bbdb/news-auto-create-p. So there you go, make tm-bbdb/auto-create-p t. *changes his .gnus* I think I'm going to scream now. -- David Moore | Computer Systems Lab __o UCSD Dept.
