Hi,

I have two variants of a function. It's suited for signing only the
mail messages (as opposed to the news postings).

(defun mml-vk-maybe-sign ()
  (unless (message-news-p)
    (mml-secure-message-sign-pgpmime)))

(defun mml-vk-maybe-sign ()
  (if (message-mail-p)
      (mml-secure-message-sign-pgpmime)))

They both work for new and replied messages in message-setup-hook. But
not in gnus-message-setup-hook. Well, they both work OK when composing
replies and followups, when called from that hook too. But not when
composing new messages. The if/unless condition is always false then.

Actually, it's not surprising, because when I evaluate (message-mail-p)
or (message-news-p) in a new message buffer, they're both nil. But I
didn't get, why do they work in message-setup-hook. Can anyone help me?
