Greetings. Is there a configuration option to make message.el put no
more than one recipient per line in the header when I reply to a
message? Currently, message.el puts as many recipients as will fit
onto each line. So, it would normally do something like
To: recipient1@example.com, recipient2@example.com,
recipient3@example.com
But I want
To: recipient1@example.com,
recipient2@example.com,
recipient3@example.com
If this behavior isn't configurable, could someone point me to the
code I need to advise or override?

Is there any particular reason for this?

`RET runs the command newline', `SPC runs the command
self-insert-command'. ;-)
Bye, Reiner.

I don't have the solution to your problem even if I didn't search too
much :) I am just curious : why do you want that behaviour ? Any
technical reason ?

It would make it easier to see each and every recipient. It would be
especially useful when replying to a long list of people, like
To: "Co-worker One" <coworker1@example.com>,
"Co-worker Two" <coworker2@example.com>,
"Friend One" <f1@example.com>, boss@example.com,
"Friend Two" <f2@example.com>
It's easy to miss boss@example.com, and not just because it has no
associated full name. If it were on its own line, it would be
slightly easier to notice.

Just off the top of my head, it probably would be easy to write a
little function that
* narrows to the To, BCC, and CC fields (others?)
* searches and replaces the space separators between run-on email
addresses by a newline
The second requires care: you can't just search for
, *
since there may be commas lurking inside quotes or inside the email
addresses themselves. I guess there are regexps lurking inside the
gnus or message codebase for identifying the boundaries between email
addresses which you could reuse.
You could then bind this wonderful function to M-q, which currently
does nothing useful in the headers...
Good luck!

Well, the address headers are filled by `message-fill-address', and
it would be quite easy to change it to fill using this style
instead. Or it could be customizable. But I'm not really sure that
it makes much sense...
