This comes from this part of message.el:
(defcustom message-user-organization-file
(let (orgfile)
(dolist (f (list "/etc/organization"
"/etc/news/organization"
"/usr/lib/news/organization"))
(when (file-readable-p f)
(setq orgfile f)))
orgfile)
"Local news organization file."
file-readable-p is documented to "Return t if file FILENAME exists and
you can read it." So I think Ffile_readable_p should not signal an
error if the file does not exist, it should return nil instead.
