How very frustrating....  My guess is that you have got bit rot on your
system.  Better call a professional.

In any case, I have moved ALL sending configuration to gnus-posting-style
and it's brilliant.  Before I was messing with hooks to change variables
before dispatching.


(setq gnus-posting-styles
        '(((lambda ()
             (rasmus/gnus-posting-style-identify
              '(".*") '(("To". "mymail\\.net")) nil "mymail"))
           (GCC "nnimap+mail:mymail/sent")
           (X-Message-SMTP-Method "smtp mymail.net 465 rasmus")
           (signature
            (or (ignore-errors
                  (cookie (concat user-emacs-directory "signatures") "" ""))
                "Send from my Emacs"))
           (Face (gnus-random-face))
           (address "address@hidden")
           (Organization nil)
           (eval (setq smtpmail-stream-type 'ssl)))
           ;; work email omitted
          ((lambda ()
             (rasmus/gnus-posting-style-identify
              '("gmx\\|gmane\\|sunsite\\|emacs")
              '(("To" . "address@hidden"))
              '(message-news-p)
              "gmx"))
           (name "Rasmus")
           (address "address@hidden")
           (Organization nil)
           (GCC "nnimap+mail:gmx/sent")
           (X-Message-SMTP-Method "smtp mail.gmx.com 587 address@hidden")
           (eval (setq smtpmail-stream-type nil)))))

`gnus-configure-posting-styles' is handy when changing profile OTG.
