I think you're right, I was confused about that. (I've been playing with so many configurations here that I'm getting loopy.) The original article displayed with `r' or `f' is a raw copy, correct? With no highlighting and all headers displayed. Usually, the headers fill up the entire window, unfortunately.... It'd be nice if it automatically scrolled to the end. (Is there a hook for that? I haven't bothered looking, just wondering.) In any case, the problem still stands that if I want to refer to a different message in the same or a different group, it's a bit awkward to navigate. I think the configuration I was trying to achieve would help there. It would also just display the normal article buffer (along with the summary buffer) rather than the raw copy, which is better in most cases, I think. Thanks for straightening me out regarding the above, though. Reid
