Can you tell me which of the recent bugs (if any) your package

Unfortunately, until recently I did not know about the fact that bug
reports did not only get posted on gnu.emacs.bug, but also on the
address@hidden mailing list. I just subscribed this evening.
Gerd did not ask me to watch either this site or gnu.emacs.bug. (He
did tell me to contact this site when I contacted him more recently.)
Hence, I did not even watch the site I did know about too carefully. I
just assumed Gerd would contact me if anybody reported problems on the
things I was working on. I did not know that Gerd was no longer at
the FSF.
As mentioned, my package does fix the problems in the report I
included in my original message.
I will mail you a report on the bug report you forwarded me shortly.
In as far as the one other one I noticed while wading through the
February archives:
I am thinking that it is wasteful to load sendmail.el
if the user is using message.el instead.
This is exactly the main thing I still need to worry about. My package
is essentially ready in as far as RMAIL is concerned, which is the
mailer I use, but I still need to worry how it affects message mode.
My package presently loads sendmail, but that could change.
I will have to take a look at message.el. I have not yet done so.
Was your message below the final word on the subject?

It would be wasteful to load a substantial file just to use 5 lines of
code. Does this patch fix it?

I do not, at present, know about any other bug reports posted about
mailabbrev.el on this site. I could try to wade some more through the
archives.
