Whenever I call gnus-group-mail I am given a message with a from header using the "parens" style: bowman@mazirian.com (Bradford R. Bowman). I want to use the angles style for the from header, as I find that parens confuses the roundcube webmail client, which is a problem for a number of people I send mail to. However, when I setq mail-from-style 'angles there is no change in the behavior of gnus-group-mail. It continues to form a parens style from header. Emacs confirms that the variable is set to "angles" by gnus' mail composition mode seems to take no notice of this fact. Admittedly I am not the most sophisticated emacs/gnus user. Can anyone suggest a solution to this?
