Hi,

I would like, say, "meo" to expand to "my.email.org" after "@".

So for any arbitrary "user"

  user@meo

would expand to

  user@my.email.org

Is this possible?

Cheers,

Loris

That's possible by M-'  abbrev-prefix-mark

Type user@  then M-' , it will become user@-,  type meo follow by, it will
expand in the way you want.

It has been clearly stated in the documentation (info "(emacs) abbrevs"),
 at menu "Controlling Abbrev Expansion". HTH.

Thanks for the pointer to the documentation.

This works expect for expansion in the address fields in Gnus (which is
where I would like expansion following @ to work).  In this case
expansion just doesn't happen, with or without a prefix.

Maybe someone on the in the Gnus newsgroup can enlighten me.  I assume
it is some sort of conflict with the regular Gnus magic which expands
addresses out the BBDB.

Cheers,

Loris
