Hi,

I recently came to know about 'format=flowed' style of posting messages. I want 
to know what is the recommended way to post such messages using Gnus. I'm 
running Emacs CVS. I've following lines of LISP code in my .gnus:

---->8---->8----
(defcustom my-inline-pgp-mails-list
	'()
	"List of email address which only accept inline-PGP signed mails"
	:type '(repeat string))

(defun my-list-all-recipients()
	"Lists all recipients in the current buffer"
	(interactive)
	(let ((list-of-recipients)
		(list-of-emails '()))
		(setq list-of-recipients (split-string (concat 
			(message-fetch-field "to") ","
			(message-fetch-field "bcc") ","
			(message-fetch-field "cc")) ","))
		(dolist (recipient list-of-recipients)
			(when (string-match "\\([[:alnum:].-]+@[[:alnum:].-]*\\)" recipient)
				(add-to-list 'list-of-emails (match-string 1 recipient))))
		list-of-emails))

(defun my-sign-mail()
	"Sends a PGP signed mail depending on whether recipient allows PGP/MIME signed mails"
	(let
		((recipients (my-list-all-recipients))
	     (message-signed nil))
		(dolist (email my-inline-pgp-mails-list)
			(when (member email recipients)
				(mml-secure-sign-pgp)
				(setq message-signed t)
				(return t)))
		(unless message-signed (mml-secure-sign-pgpmime))))


(add-hook 'message-setup-hook '(lambda() (use-hard-newlines t t)))
(setq mm-fill-flowed t)
(add-hook 'message-send-hook 'my-sign-mail)
---->8---->8----

1. Whenever I try to send PGP (MIME) signed messages or unsigned messages, message 
is posted as format=flowed, but when I send as PGP (inline) signed messages, 
they're sent without format=flowed in 'Content-Type'.

2. If I reply to a message (non format=flowed), then all of the lines in the 
messages gets concatenated, which I think is due to presence of no hard-newline 
characters in the message.

So, I want to know if it is possible to send format=flowed messages properly 
with Gnus ? If yes, then what is the recommended way ?

TIA
Ashish
