citing cites `220 ' line?

citing cites `220 ' line?

[Kai Großjohann]

I recently began using the trivial-cite (tc) package by Lars Clausen
and discovered that Gnus will sometimes cite a `220 ' line in
addition to the article itself.

I'm not sure, but it seems to me that the `220 ' line (apparently the
response from the news server for the command that retrieves the
article) should not be there.  But OTOH, I can't find any
documentation that really defines the interface between message and
message-cite-function.

(For the time being, I have hacked tc.el to delete the superfluous
line.  tc.el expects the cited message to start with the first header
line.)

I've noticed the same thing (using SuperCite).  I think it's a bug,
and a longstanding one at that (I've certainly seen it since pgnus
version 70 or 80).

Since SuperCite just warns and deletes it, it's never annoyed me
enough to investigate properly.
