Message-ID: <200309111638.h8BGc0SC014709@rosewood.cse.tek.com> (raw)
This bug report will be sent to the Free Software Foundation,
not to your local site managers!
Please write in English, because the Emacs maintainers do not have
translators to read other languages for them.
Your bug report will be posted to the bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org mailing list,
and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group.
In GNU Emacs 21.3.1 (sparc-sun-solaris2.8, X toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars)

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:
I use the "e" command in RMAIL to edit mail messages quite a bit. I had been
using emacs-19.34 and when you edit a message there, the current cursor
position in the mail message would not change when you entered the editing
mode.
In emacs-21.3 there is new code to show all the mail headers when you edit a
message. In doing this, the cursor will move from where it was. I generally
would put the cursor where I wanted it and then edit. The moving around is
quite annoying. This seems to have to do with if the mark is set or not.
I also would like to request a variable to disable the showing of the
headers. It is very seldon I would want to see them and edit. If I needed
that I would do the "t" command and then edit.
