Aah. I didn't know this one. Its exactly what I way looking for.  Thank
you very much. I didn't even know that you can work with regions in a
summary buffer. I always used # to define groups of mails. 

The documentation of Emacs is good, but (as the only person who has ever
heard of Gnus/Emacs in my whole circle of acquaintances) I feel that you
always need a concrete person to guide your attention and to show you
the tricks.

Greetings,

Sven
