Hi, I'm using gnus bundled with emacs from current cvs

Gnus v5.13
GNU Emacs 23.0.90.1 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.14.7) of 2009-02-24

I'm not sure it is a bug or some error caused by my
configuration.  But it happens with a few emails.  The
following is the back trace.

I'm not sure where to report the bug.  But feel free to

Put this line in the beginning of your ~/.emacs file:

(require 'mm-util)

Though this is no more than a workaround.  Maybe you can find
the real culprit by performing:

C-h f replace-in-string RET

The file shown in the result as follows is it:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
replace-in-string is a compiled Lisp function in `xxxxxxxx.el'.

(replace-in-string target old new)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Isn't it color-theme.el?  See:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.gnus.general/66942
(You can find my patch there.)

I'm not sure how the Followup-To field is defined.  I have
the following in gnus-parameters

        ("list\\.help-gnu-emacs$"
         (to-address . "help-gnu-emacs@gnu.org")
         (to-list . "help-gnu-emacs@gnu.org")
         (subscribed . t))

Is there something wrong?

I subscribed to this mailing list but not the gnus one.  My
university shut down the news group service two years ago,
so I'm using gnus only for emails, now.

Right, I see the problem.  Thanks a lot.

I missed that you posted it to the mailing list, not the
newsgroup (I subscribe to only the newsgroups for GNU).
AFAICT, many GNU mailing lists are gateway'd to the newsgroups
mutually.  For instance:

bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org <-> gnu.emacs.bug
help-gnu-emacs@gnu.org <-> gnu.emacs.help
info-gnus-english@gnu.org <-> gnu.emacs.gnus

I don't know where all those tables are listed, though.
