Hello
As you may all know today the top *posting style* is the "standard" for
a lot of users and one has almost to apologise for using *bottom
posting* or *inline replying*. So I modified some old code of bbdbsig
which inserted different signatures according to a certain bbdb
field.
My code basically follows the same idea, just at the very beginning of
the message there is a line
Hello user,
According to your last mail,
And then comes the quote.
Now that function I have defined interactively and in this way I can
call it, however I would find it more convenient to have it in a hook,
so that I don't have to call the function explicitly however I put it
in the news-reply-hook and in the message-setup-hook without any
result. Can anybody give me an idea?
Thanks and regards
Uwe Brauer

In No Gnus, there is `message-cite-reply-above', but it's doc string
says "This variable has no effect in news postings."

There's no such hook in Gnus, AFAICS.

Maybe setting `message-citation-line-format' (new in No Gnus,
cf. `message-insert-formatted-citation-line') specially for these
groups?
When using `message-setup-hook' you need to make sure to jump to the
right position in the message buffer: `message-goto-body', ...
Bye, Reiner.

Well I am using no gnus 0.6 and can't find this variable so it must be
new.

The problem is that starts with a

besides it is not flexible enough and it is not connected to
bbdb. The idea I had was that such a string is configured according
to a relevant entry in the bbdb.

I have the feeling that it there is a conflict with supercite, like
supercite inserts its stuff first and then my bbdbcite command is not
executed.

IIRC this is not the first problem with supercite. Maybe you should
reconsider using it.
Bye, Reiner.
