Subject: Feature idea: gnus-summary-novice-warn-if-repying-to-nntp-group
Date: 10 May 2002 12:58:24 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <7w4rhgb773.fsf@i19.ruc.dk> (raw)


When replying to usenet articles I sometimes (by mistake) press "r"
instead of "f". So I write an e-mail instead of a followup. I am going
to rebing the r button so that it gives me a warning if I reply to the
author in an nntp group. However I would like to propose that Lars (or
some similar guru) includes the following variable in gnus.
  
gnus-summary-novice-warn-if-repying-to-nntp-group-p

The idea is that whenever this variable was set to non-nil the program
should warn the user, if the user tries to reply to the author of an
article in an nntp group.

Just an idea.. Have a nice day
