Hi,

When I reading posts using gnus, I wrote a reply. But, before I post it I decide
to do some tests first to see if I should send that reply out. 

I guess there must be some way to store what I've write. Would anyone please
tell me? Or just save that buffer to a file?

Please type in

  C-x C-s

In the message buffer you will see then:

  Wrote /Users/maierh/News/drafts/drafts/1 [2 times]

After the next 'g' in the group buffer you should see there a draft
group:

  ...
  4: nnml:mail.sent 
  1: nndraft:drafts 
  ...
