I saw this message rather late. Actually, suppose I take your message
as an example  which i've pasted below.
What I wanted is to copy this , paste it in a buffer and in message
mode reply to this, so that I get all the features of message mode
( snippet handling, automatic > prefix etc)
However, if i turn on message mode, its treats the buffer content *my*
response.

Thank you

if i understand your question correctly, you basically just want a way
to create a new buffer.

you can use switch-to-buffer (Ctrl+x b), then give a random name.

if you are using my ergo map package, you can just call new-empty-
buffer (Ctrl+n).

it would be nice if there's a emacs package that interface with GMail.
