I have just downloaded org-contacts.el load it in my .emacs/init.el like this
(setq load-path (cons "~/cfg/emacs/el/org" load-path)) (require 'org-contacts) (setq org-contact-files (list "~/work/org/contacts.org" )) and have a minimal ~/work/org/contacts.org file as described in the manual https://julien.danjou.info/projects/emacs-packages#org-contacts Now in gnus, in a new message that I am creating if I type +<tab> in the To: field, something is happening: I get a message: Updating Org Contacts Database...done and my curser moves a tab, leaving me with To: + <curser here> just no contacts / tags are found!? I *am* using emacs24, a recent one in fact: 24.4.50.1 (I saw some similar messages of people having difficultis of getting org-contacts to work nicely with gnus together, who were using using emacs 23, and that turned out to be the problem, not in my case). Thanks. -Andreas
