Yes, but this is highly non-trivial. If I understood gnus's washing methods correctly, the message is parsed on a per-line basis, which means that with a format like this: Message ^original-messsage-marker$ Message ^sig-delimiter$ Signature ^often-wrong-sig-delimiter$ Signature and Outlook, which, IIRC, does not even use quote-prefixes (> or similar) by default, you stand no chance to actually get it right, because it is just not clear which line (after the original-message-marker) belongs to which message. > Inserting a text before the message refering the poster to RFC1855 > (the netiquette) and > would > also be nice. Phew. I was not making myself clear in the first place: I was talking about hiding it only when reading the article, not when Replying to it. But it would be practical to also have it when replying and following up. (BTW: I have found http://learn.to/quote (german only, sorry) highly helpful in this matter, it is not only easier to type than the above URL, it also gets the message across[1] (-:) > /Jonas, who has battled many wars against the lusers. I trust you were victorious (-8 [1] although someone really should translate it. (I can't volunteer, too much work in school at the moment)[2] [2] BTW, is there a way to get xemacs's footnote-mode working in Gnumacs? I have tried the 1.12 version in the packages/ directory, but it crashed emacs (abort signal) when trying to rotate styles. Inserting footnotes did not work, too: it tried to access a negative list index (?). Oh well, inserting these beasts manually works too (-: kind regards, -- Andreas Stefan Fuchs in Real Life aka asf@acm.org, asfuchs@gmx.at, asf@ycom.at in NNTP and SMTP, antifuchs in IRCNet and Relf Herbstfresser, Male 1/2 Elf Priest in AD&D
