Hi,
The change in `message-setup-1' to insert the mail-header-separator with
read-only and intangible properties set (commit
bd10f37e4630719920f82122d7c7ae7523567762) doesn't work for me (on XEmacs
21.4.22). When trying to compose a message, I get
#v+
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (buffer-read-only #<buffer "*unsent mail*">)
insert("")
(progn (insert message-default-mail-headers) (or (bolp) (insert ?\n)))
(if message-default-mail-headers (progn (insert message-default-mail-headers) (or ... ...)))
(when message-default-mail-headers (insert message-default-mail-headers) (or (bolp) (insert ?\n)))
(progn (when message-default-mail-headers (insert message-default-mail-headers) (or ... ...)) (message-generate-headers (message-headers-to-generate ... message-generate-headers-first ...)))
(if (message-mail-p) (progn (when message-default-mail-headers ... ...) (message-generate-headers ...)))
(when (message-mail-p) (when message-default-mail-headers (insert message-default-mail-headers) (or ... ...)) (message-generate-headers (message-headers-to-generate ... message-generate-headers-first ...)))
(let ((message-generate-headers-first ...)) (when (message-news-p) (when message-default-news-headers ... ...) (message-generate-headers ...)) (when (message-mail-p) (when message-default-mail-headers ... ...) (message-generate-headers ...)))
message-setup-1(((To . "") (Subject . "")) nil nil nil)
message-setup(((To . "") (Subject . "")) nil nil nil nil nil)
message-mail()
gnus-group-mail(nil)
call-interactively(gnus-group-mail)
#v-
It works if I change
'read-only t
to
'read-only nil
in the call to `propertize' in `message-setup-1'.
An XEmacs issue?
Thanks and greetings

So you can't insert read-only strings into buffers in XEmacs? That
sounds... annoying...

If I eval:
(insert (propertize (concat mail-header-separator "\n")
'read-only t 'rear-nonsticky t 'intangible t))
in XEmacs, it works as you'd expect. It inserts a read-only string. So
I don't seem to be able to reproduce this bug.

Actually, when using XEmacs on this function, it breaks badly, and I
have no idea why. I've reverted the change for the moment, but we
should investigate why it fails and reinstate the read-onlyness.

Right, as such inserting the separator works, but apparently there is
some interaction in `message-setup-1'.

Thanks. It's very annoying if you can't even write messages ...
Best regards

Can it be conditionally enabled just for non-XEmacs users while the
investigation proceeds?

We could, but I think it would be better to just find out why it fails
on XEmacs and just fix it. :-)
Any takers?

I'm not touching XEmacs after it rewrote my custom.el file without
asking this weekend.

It seems not. Maybe letting this broken will motivate someone to either
fix it/XEmacs (don't know which one fault it is), or switch to GNU
Emacs? ;-)

It's not very neighbourly...
