When composing a message in Pine, just type in the username, for example, "dsiu", and Pine will expend it to full name and uid@FQDN, like "Danny Siu ". It is particularly useful when you are not certain about the email address of someone in your school or company when you email him. Is this possible in GNUS? -- ^..^ '/..\" ( oo ) )~ m( oo )m ,, ,, /=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=\ | Danny Dick-Fung Siu http://www-leland.stanford.edu/~dsiu | | Reference System Group http://www.csua.berkeley.edu/~dsiu | | Adobe Systems Incorporated E-Mail: | | "What do you expect from a | | Cal.
