Hi list,

suddenly the address autocompletion in mu4e does not work anymore. I got three
different accounts and changed nothing, it stops working since yesterday. The
funny thing is, that it still works for one account: Gmail. If I’m on another
account an hit <tab> it happens nothing and mu4e only tells me: no match found.

I reindexed my maildir but this does not help. Of course I got several personal
mail addresses.

I have no clue what I should do now…

Regards

Thorsten Grothe

Try quitting mu4e, then re-execute it straight away from the same emacs
session with M-x mu4e. Does completion work then?

sorry for my late response. I did not see that someone answered my post. I found out one problem. In my init.el I got this hook

(add-hook 'message-mode-hook #'adict-guess-dictionary)

It's for the auto dictionary mode package. After searching a bit I found a message from adict that it cannot find
the english language file. It's installed so I don't know why. I uninstalled auto dictionary and address autocompletion is working
again.

I will see if that is stable or not....
