Hey, it kinda worked!

[Jack Twilley]

I used to use this hackish function that would add stuff like my PGP
information and my X-Face to my headers, so I moved all that stuff
into gnus-posting-styles, and it worked.  Neat.

Unfortunately, I'm getting an extra blank line between X-Face: and
Mail-Copies-To: -- does anyone have any suggestions?

Also, headers shouldn't be highlighted below the --text follows this
line--, but the automatic highlighting thingee lit up the MCT: line in
the previous paragraph.

Here's my posting styles thing:

 gnus-posting-styles '((".*"		; defaults
			(signature-file "~/.signature")
			(name "Jack Twilley")
			("X-Attribution" "Jack")
			("X-PGP-Key" "0x007F7B38")
			("X-PGP-Fingerprint" "5315 7434 6095 DF36 995B  3407 18F1 527C 007F 7B38")
			("X-Face" (save-excursion
				    (set-buffer 
				     (find-file-noselect "~/.face" t t))
				    (buffer-string))))
		       ((message-mail-p)
			(address "jmt@twilley.org"))
		       ((message-news-p)
			(address "jmt+usenet@twilley.org"))
		       ("gnus.ding"
			("Mail-Copies-To" "nobody")))

It might be that there's a trailing newline in my ~/.face file, and if
so, I'll remove it.  Also, is there a way to do the face thing without
taking up a buffer?

This works for me, for what it's worth - it it equivalent to your
code? (supper's about ready or I'd check).  My ~/.xface does *not*
have a trailing newline.

,----[ ~/.gnus ]
| (setq message-default-headers
|       (with-temp-buffer
|         (insert "X-Face:")
|         (insert-file-contents "~/.xface")
|         (buffer-string)))
| 
`----

Cheers -

Your code works very nicely with mine.  Thank you.

Now if only I could figure out why my .gnus goes (ding) when it hits
the line (load "bbdb-sc" t)....
