Hello, I was reading the doc for gnus-summary-line-format, but couldn't find an answer to my question. When visually scanning the summary buffer I would find it useful to see the first couple of words of each message. Those who use Google gmail might have noticed that this makes it far faster to identify to the missed spams in the inbox and the missed hams in the spambox. Any ideas? While I'm asking, is there any way to get proportional fonts for the summary buffer (but maintain the tabular alignment) so I can easily see more data? Regards, -James
