Hi,
I noticed that if Gnus isn't running, mail-compose doesnot use gnus even if i set
(setq mail-user-agent 'gnus-user-agent)
The reason is that gnus-msg-mail uses plain Message mode if gnus isn't running. Is this a bug or feature?
It seems reasonable to assume that if I set gnus-user-agent I want to use gnus, nothing else.
One can define new mail user agent like:
diff --git a/lisp/gnus/gnus-msg.el b/lisp/gnus/gnus-msg.el
index 85969edc81..bb65d3aaab 100644

Or even redefine the function gnus-msg-mail:

It must be a feature, because it was explicitly added in commit
7582f844. Perhaps Lars can shed some light on this.

It's a feature -- starting Gnus can take a long time, and you need to
have Gnus started to use stuff like Gcc: and the like from Message mode.
So I think the current behaviour makes sense.
