First, how about: C-h v user-mail-address C-h v user-full-name to see if these variables are set. Then, add the following lines to your .gnus (or .gnus.el) init file, appropriately changed: (setq user-mail-address "address@domain.com") (setq user-full-name "your name") Typing C-x C-e after the closing parenthesis should get gnus to recognize that immediately, or choose menu item Gnus / Reread Init file. If there is a problem parsing your init file, you may use the *Messages* buffer to give you a hint. In particular, you might try deleting the lines in the Customization section of the init file (set up by emacs and gnus) which have something to do with the two variables above. Below is my customized section, for comparison: (custom-set-variables ;; custom-set-variables was added by Custom -- don't edit or cut/paste it! ;; Your init file should contain only one such instance. '(auto-compression-mode t nil (jka-compr)) '(canlock-password "9d726a63991b6d8eb6e4932bb6c3058903cbf42b") '(case-fold-search t) '(current-language-environment "Japanese") '(default-input-method "japanese-egg-wnn") '(global-font-lock-mode t nil (font-lock)) '(max-lisp-eval-depth 512) '(mew-addrbook-for-cite-prefix (quote nickname)) '(mew-from-list (quote ("Gernot Hassenpflug" "Gernot Hassenpflug" "Gernot Hassenpflug" "Gernot Hassenpflug"))) '(mew-x-face-file "~/aikiface.xface") '(show-paren-mode t nil (paren)) '(transient-mark-mode t)) (custom-set-faces ;; custom-set-faces was added by Custom -- don't edit or cut/paste it! ;; Your init file should contain only one such instance.
