I'm using the latest (or near-latest) CVS version of gnus.
In certain newsgroups, I want to be able to review and revise all of
my articles before they actually get posted. In these special groups,
I map `\C-c \C-c' to my special function for deferring the post. What
this function does is to simply force the article into my `drafts'
folder. `\C-c \C-c' remains mapped to `message-send-and-exit' in all
the other groups (including `drafts').
My question is this: is the following function the recommended method
for forcing an article into `drafts'? (this is a stripped-down version
of my actual function, showing only the essentials):
(my-defer-posting ()
(save-article)
(kill-buffer (current-buffer)))
This seems to work just fine and is consistent with how drafts work in
general ... but just in case, I want to double-check in case there's
something special that I should do in addition to this or instead of
this.
Thanks in advance.

Why not simply map C-c C-c to message-dont-send ?

Aha! I *knew* there must be a better way!
Thank you very much.
