Then the answer is that Gnus does this according to the standard, but not too many other mail readers follow this standard (when reading mail). Which is understandable, since it's both kinda tricky to implement, and somewhat obscure. Increase `message-send-mail-partially-limit' to have Gnus stop doing this. -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) larsi@gnus.org * Lars Magne Ingebrigtsen
