Do `M-x toggle-debug-on-quit RET' and when it hangs, press `C-g'.  The
show us the lisp backtrace.

   Many thanks for your pointer , I was able to pin point the error.
That is because .signature file

 Debugger entered--Lisp error: (quit)
  insert-file-contents("~/.signature")
  message-insert-signature()
  message-setup-1(((To . "") (Subject . "")) nil nil)
  message-setup(((To . "") (Subject . "")) nil nil)
  message-mail()
  gnus-group-mail(nil)
  call-interactively(gnus-group-mail)

thanks,
Dinesh
