I removed the parts I added, restarted emacs, and realized tha= t locally (in an *unsent mail* buffer), the variable dnd-protocol-alist is = set correctly. Nevertheless, DnD does not work. I then checked on Ubuntu 11= .10 with the same .gnus.el. There it works. So it seems to be a problem on = Mac OS X.=20 Any ideas?=20 Cheers, Marius PS: I work with Emacs 24 (Emacs-pretest-24.0.91-universal-10.6.7.dmg from http://emacsformacosx.com/) on Mac OS X 10.7.2 with Gnus v5.13.=
