I send mail with either global C-x m (compose-mail) or from my gnus buffer when I reply to a message. In both cases, if I happen to have visited a notmuch search result previously, it has changed my headers and completion methods. Yeah, over-writing mail-user-agent seems to be the case -- I see that is exactly what has happened. Any idea how can I stop it?
