* cursor jumps to first ':'

Hi all,

I'm using (emacs-version) "XEmacs 21.4 (patch 15) \"Security Through
Obscurity\" [Lucid] (i686-pc-linux, Mule) of Fri Feb 6 2004 on oumu"
and (gnus-version) "No Gnus v0.2".

I've got a problem since I played around with
`gnus-summary-line-format'.  It is now set to

Value: "%U%R%z|%d|%4L(%5k)|%(%[ %-23,23f%]%) %B%s\n"

and the cursor jumps to the first ':' it can find on the line (which
often happens to be a "Re:") which is very disturbing.
Can someone tell me what's happening?

bye, Adam.

That's the default place for the cursor to go.  You can fix it by
munging your summary line format.

`gnus-summary-line-format' is a variable declared in Lisp.
  -- loaded from "gnus"

Value: "%O%U%R(%t)%B%[(#%N,%ud,%LL)%*%ub%-20,20f%] %(%s%)\n"

Documentation:
*The format specification of the lines in the summary buffer.

[...]

%*   If present, indicates desired cursor position
     (instead of after first colon).
