Automatically removing recipient's signature at C-F (Reply)

Automatically removing recipient's signature at C-F (Reply)

Hello,

When using C-F to answer, e.g., to a one's Usenet message, one's
answer is automatically cited. That is a nice thing, but if one has a
signature, it is automatically included in the citation. It makes
things messier, and uglier.

I know there are .el files which can be 'required for this, but is
there a simple workaround for this which only needs some code in
.emacs or .gnus?

Thanks.

See http://gnus.org/manual/message_39.html#SEC39 - which says:

  "message-cite-function
    Function for citing an original message. The default is
    message-cite-original, which simply inserts the original message and
    prepends `> ' to each line. message-cite-original-without-signature
    does the same, but elides the signature. You can also set it to
    sc-cite-original to use Supercite."

or:

,----[ C-h v message-cite-function RET ]
| `message-cite-function' is a variable declared in Lisp.
|   -- loaded from "message"
| 
| Value: sc-cite-original
| 
| Documentation:
| *Function for citing an original message.
| Predefined functions include `message-cite-original' and
| `message-cite-original-without-signature'.
| Note that these functions use `mail-citation-hook' if that is non-nil.
`----


  Best regards,

    Adam
