Somewhere in your gnus-buffer-configuration you should have a member like this (mine is customized, so yours, presumably the default, won't look quite the same): ((article (horizontal 1.0 (vertical 84 (summary 0.25 point) (article 1.0)) (vertical 1.0 (group 1.0))))) What you want to do is add similar members for at least message, and possibly 'reply, forward and others that might be used for message generation (there's a bunch, but many aren't used so often that perhaps it's not worth worrying about them) with the same structure with 'message where you see 'article. -- Dave Goldberg david.goldberg6@verizon.net
