I use BBDB for managing my addressbook. BBDB works great with Gnus
except for this little problem. If email address of the contact contains
period (.) character, then the name is not completed only email address
is completed. Any ideas why ?
Following is my BBDB configuration:
#v+
(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/elisp/bbdb/lisp")
(eval-after-load 'bbdb
'(progn
(bbdb-initialize 'gnus 'sc 'message 'sendmail)
(add-hook 'gnus-startup-hook 'bbdb-insinuate-gnus)
(eval-after-load 'sendmail
(add-hook 'mail-setup-hook 'bbdb-insinuate-sendmail))))
(autoload 'bbdb "bbdb")
#v-
Thanks

I had the exact same problem! Try setting bbdb-dwim-net-address-allow-
redundancy to t, at least that solved the problem for me. For more
info, check out "Configuring the BBDB" on http://bbdb.sourceforge.net/faq.html
