Then no link will be created.  Basically, that's what we'd like to have.

But somehow my `called-interactively-p' check now always returns nil.
I'm pretty sure it didn't when I tested my last patch.  But according to
its docs, the current behavior is correct.  It should only check if the
*containing* function was called interactively, not if its caller was
called interactively.

So I'd say the current behavior, i.e., erroring if there's no Gcc
header, is correct and neither one of the two proposed patches shall be
applied.  Instead of making the low-level functions aware of their call
context (an interactive org-store-link call called org-gnus-store-link
vs. an interactive org-capture called org-store-link that in turn called
org-gnus-store-link), the caller should be adapted to handle the error
appropriately.

Here's a patch for the `org-capture' use case.  I've tested it.  In a
message buffer without Gcc header, calling `org-store-link' will produce
an error indicating the problem to the user.  When called by
`org-capture', the error is still produce but simply ignored so you
still can capture.  In that case, the %a format spec is empty.

Bye,
Tassilo
