Hi,

In latest Gnus CVS, the function `message-setup-fill-variables'
sets the value of `auto-fill-function' to `message-do-auto-fill'
and then `auto-fill-mode' is turned on unconditionally.  The
function `message-do-auto-fill' is good for the message-mode.
However, some people do not like `auto-fill-mode'.  Is it a
feature of Gnus?  If so, people may use a hook to inhibit it as
shown below:

  (add-hook 'message-mode-hook 'turn-off-auto-fill)

Otherwise, Gnus should be changed as follows:


2001-10-16  Katsumi Yamaoka  <yamaoka@jpl.org>

	* message.el (message-setup-fill-variables): Use
	`normal-auto-fill-function' instead of `auto-fill-function'.

I didn't realize that setting auto-fill-function automatically turns
on auto-fill.  Thanks a lot for your patch, I applied it.
