I had quite an elaborate setup to deal with the case of me starting up Emacs and typing C-x m to send mail without starting gnus first. The settings in .gnus continue to be a problem. In my .emacs I have (require 'gnus-msg) and I set mail-user-agent to 'gnus-user-agent. In my .gnus I have a lot of posting styles. Amongst other things these add a Fcc header and a signature. When I start Emacs and hit C-x m, I get a buffer with "To:" and "Subject:" header, and it has the modes Message, MML and Abbrev. Therefore, message mode is used (good) but the posting styles are not used (because .gnus is not read). Maybe loading gnus-msg should make sure that .gnus is loaded? Or whatever is used to create message buffers should? Anyway, this works for me: (require 'gnus-msg) (load-file "~/.gnus") Alex. -- http://www.geocities.com/kensanata/emacs.html "Put (global-font-lock-mode 1) in your .emacs for syntax coloring."
