Subject: Problem citing text with pgnus 0.99

Message-ID: <vuo66yid14p.fsf@csa.bu.edu> (raw)

Hi,

I use the following method of citing text with pgnus:

1) hit 'f' to follow-up
2) hit 'C-c C-y' to yank the original message

This has stopped working with pgnus 0.99.  When I try the above, it
reports:

"Yank buffer: (default *followup to Gordon Dahlquist on alt.movies.kubrick*)"

Pressing RET causes the following error:

"Wrong type argument: stringp, nil"

I can use 'F' to do the same thing, but it's going to be difficult to
reprogram all of my news-related brain cells to use that method I
think.  :-)
