(It clashes at times with the > citation highlight :-( ). YAV wouldn't help much coz you typically want to turn it off for a particular message. There'll be groups where you want to off by default, which is where another variable might be useful. I think the general solution to article buffer massagers that get in the way for special articles is to provide unmassagers, functions that reverse the effects of the massagers. This would be useful for smiley.el as well. If all massagers provided two hook-safe functions, feature-foo-article and un-feature-foo-article, we wouldn't need variables. They could be added to the appropriate hook and given bindings in the W keymap. -Sudish
