Maybe binding it isThat > more comfortable? Dunno, just an idea. That will cause a problem similar to the one I mentioned in 1. If Gnus is neither running nor loaded when performing `report-emacs-bug', gnus-msg.el will be autoloaded under the condition where `gnus-inhibit-posting-styles' is let-bound (to non-nil), and `gnus-inhibit-posting-styles' will get void afterward. Besides this, I came to realize that a user may want to use `gnus-posting-styles' so as to add something like `Bcc: me', as you do. So, either way is not so good. Oh, I hit on a good idea! That's somewhat kludgy but works. A quick hack is below. It binds the newsgroup name to "report-emacs-bug" temporarily while performing `report-emacs-bug'. So, if you want to add `Bcc: me' to a bug report, you can use this element in `gnus-posting-styles': ("report-emacs-bug" (Bcc "michael_heerdegen@web.de")) WDYT?
