I didn't try it yet (I'm quite happy with BBDB).  Just some remarks:

- In `message-put-addresses-in-ecomplete' you should use
  `gnus-replace-in-string' instead of `replace-regexp-in-string' for
  compatibility with XEmacs.

- Wouldn't (autoload 'ecomplete-setup "ecomplete") be sufficient
  instead of (require 'ecomplete)?

- Maybe it would be better to use a file under ~/.emacs.d/ or
  ~/.xemacs/ for `ecomplete-database-file'.  See e.g. `savehist-file'
  (recent addition to Emacs).

- (defgroup ecomplete nil
    "Suppression of duplicate articles."
    :group 'mail)

  Copy and paste error?

- You might want to set `show-trailing-whitespace' to t in
  emacs-lisp-mode and change-log-mode or use `M-x
  delete-trailing-whitespace RET' from time to time .  ;-)

Bye, Reiner.
