Subject: read-only headers in message mode
Date: Thu, 15 May 2003 10:28:40 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <r77isscehqf.fsf@brouilly.inria.fr> (raw)
Hello,
When composing a message, the headers are treated as text like any
other part of the document. This has the advantage that one can edit
them at will... and therefore shoot oneself in the foot if one
chooses!
Now I'm all for being *able* to shoot myself in the foot, but most of
the time I want to be prevented from doing so accidentally. Is there
any way of making the labels like "To: " and the ``--text follows this
line--'' *read-only* (like emacs customize mode)?
When I do modify the headers arbitrarily, can I get gnus to check them
for syntactic correctness before sending the article?
Cheers,
James Leifer
