Your solution still has a special case for every field - I was hoping
that given ARTICLE and 'from as the arguments, the macro would
call (mail-header-from ARTICLE) for example.

If I could only funcall a macro, the code would be pretty simple:

;; pseudocode, doesn't work
(defun spam-fetch-field-fast (article field)
  (when (and (numberp article) (symbolp field))
    (funcall (intern (concat "mail-header-" (symbol-name field)))
               (gnus-data-header (assoc article (gnus-data-list nil))))))

(it's not correct, but I think you see what I want to achieve)

Thanks!
Ted
