* Can I use write-region without output to the mini-buffer

I use write-region to append a string to a file:
    (write-region message nil file-name t)

What I do not like is that it outputs something like
    Added to /home/cecil/.gnus.d/logging/2010-04-07
to the mini-buffer. Is there a way to circumvent this? Because this
overwrites what is in the mini-buffer and I do not like that.

How about this trick?

Maybe for another time. For write-region it is already solved. It could
be done by one of the parameters.

Thanks anyway.
