You're welcome :) > in the file post.el there is a snippet that needs to be added to > .emacs (or xemacs' equivalent). Oh? The post-mode worked just fine once I installed the package.

(unless > you customize it do not do that.) Well, it didn't turn on flyspell-mode for me. I guess it's not supposed to do that because not everyone would want it and not everyone has it installed ... Other than that, I didn't add anything ... Same as you, I had something else for editing mails until that stopped working. Then I looked for a replacement and found out that there's post-mode and that it does nicely what I want. > 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.) Thanks for the offer! It's working now --- if flyspell-mode only turns on after the first mail I'm editing, well, I can live with that :)
