broken message-newline-and-reformat

[Vladimir Volovich]

Hi!

in the current gnus from CVS, the message-newline-and-reformat
function (M-RET in *mail* buffer) is broken:

suppose that we have this text:

 AA> text text text text text text text text text text text text
 AA> text text text text text text text text text text text text
 AA> text text text text text text text text text text text text
 AA> text text text text text text text text text text text text

and then put cursur somewhere in the text, and use M-RET, we get this:

 AA> text text text text text text text text text text text text
 AA> text text text text text text


  AA> text text text text text text AA> text text text text text text text
	text text text text text AA> text text text text text text text text
	text text text text

Best,
v.

I get the following, which looks ok to me:

AA> text text text text text text text text text text text text
AA> text text text text text text text text 



AA> text text text text
AA> text text text text text text text text text text text text
AA> text text text text text text text text text text text text


Greetings,
Jochen

AA> text text text text
AA> text text text text text text text text text text text text
AA> text text text text text text text text text text text text

your version doesn't look reformatted (the second part's first line is
incomplete), so it doesn't look correct either.

Best,

Just traced the function - the second paragraph looks fine until
fill-paragraph fills it near the end of message-newline-and-reformat:

   (defun message-newline-and-reformat (&optional arg not-break)
     "Insert four newlines, and then reformat if inside quoted text.
   Prefix arg means justify as well."
     (interactive (list (if current-prefix-arg 'full)))
   [...]
         (if quoted
             (let* ((adaptive-fill-regexp
                     (regexp-quote (concat quoted leading-space)))
                    (adaptive-fill-first-line-regexp
                     adaptive-fill-regexp ))
=>             (fill-paragraph arg))
   [...]
