Hi,
I have a question about address books. As I work through the wealth of
documentation about emacs/gnus, I find two places mentioned where
addresses can be kept, (I expect there are more).
In ~/.emacs or ~/.gnus in the form;
(define-mail-alias "kkk" "kroc@blueyonder.co.uk")
or in ~/.mailrc in the form
alias keith kroc@blueyonder.co.uk
Now, assuming I have in ~/.emacs, the following line;
(add-hook 'mail-mode-hook 'mail-abbrevs-setup)
1: Why do addresses from the ~/.mailrc expand and the ones in ~/.emacs
not?
2: Which is the best method for keeping addresses, and why? Is there
a better way
Keith
