This acts like I think and replies to the article underneath the point in the Summary buffer. My general email reading mode is: # articles I wish to delete or move in a bit find one I want to reply to Try to remember C-u 1 F B Del Does everyone else use a 2 pass approach to first delete all the spam that has managed its way into your INBOX? -- Chris Green A good pun is its own reword.
