So all recipients automatically get the headers and they don't have to configure anything. With gnus-parameters, each recipient has to configure their Gnus. I think it is better if one person configures something, instead of hundreds of people. Therefore I believe that the headers should be used, if present. Is this clear? Is it clear why I think that ditching the headers in favor of group parameters is stupid? kai --=20 ~/.signature is: umop ap!sdn (Frank Nobis)
