just now, i installed post-mode myself, because it's so much better than what i had before. (so thanks for bringing it to my attention! :-) in the file post.el there is a snippet that needs to be added to .emacs (or xemacs' equivalent). furthermore, if you use mutt, it is not necessary to add anything to auto-mode-alist, because post.el takes care of that itself. (unless you customize it do not do that.) i also tried switching on flyspell-mode and that worked fine. i just added the following to .emacs: (add-hook 'post-mode-hook 'turn-on-flyspell) one reason why that might not work for you may be that you already turn on flyspell mode for all text-mode buffers, but in the wrong way. so if you have anything else about flyspell-mode in your .emacs, you may want to take a look at that. (or send it to me, off-list, if you're not sure, then I can take a look at it.) -- Joost Kremers Life has its moments
