...which brings us back to my original message ;-)

Specifically, `bbdb-message-header' calls

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defun gnus-fetch-original-field (field)
  "Fetch FIELD from the original version of the current article."
  (with-current-buffer gnus-original-article-buffer
    (gnus-fetch-field field)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

The variable gnus-original-article-buffer evaluates to
" *Original Article gmane.comp.security.risks*"
and that buffer starts like this:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Path: news.gmane.io!.POSTED.blaine.gmane.org!not-for-mail
From: RISKS List Owner <risko@csl.sri.com>
Newsgroups: gmane.comp.security.risks
Subject: Risks Digest 33.09
Date: Tue, 15 Mar 2022 16:23:26 PDT
Approved: news@gmane.org
Message-ID: <CMM.0.90.4.1647386606.risko@chiron.csl.sri.com>

To: risks-resend@csl.sri.com
...
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

and (gnus-fetch-original-field "Newsgroups") returns nil even though the
original article buffer contains the appropriate header...

Thank you for your kind attention.
