+
+@table @code
+@item message-ignored-cited-headers
+@vindex message-ignored-cited-headers
+All headers that match this regexp will be removed from yanked
+messages. The default is @samp{.}, which means that all headers will be
+removed.
+
+@item message-cite-prefix-regexp
+@vindex message-cite-prefix-regexp
+Regexp matching the longest possible citation prefix on a line.
+
+@item message-citation-line-function
+@vindex message-citation-line-function
+@cindex attribution line
+Function called to insert the citation line. The default is
+@code{message-insert-citation-line}, which will lead to citation lines
+that look like:
+
+@example
+Hallvard B Furuseth <h.b.furuseth@@usit.uio.no> writes:
+@end example
+
+Point will be at the beginning of the body of the message when this
+function is called.
+
+Note that Gnus provides a feature where clicking on `writes:' hides the
+cited text. If you change the citation line too much, readers of your
+messages will have to adjust their Gnus, too. See the variable
+@code{gnus-cite-attribution-suffix}. @xref{Article Highlighting, ,
+Article Highlighting, gnus}, for details.
+
+@item message-yank-prefix
+@vindex message-yank-prefix
+@cindex yanking
+@cindex quoting
+When you are replying to or following up an article, you normally want
+to quote the person you are answering. Inserting quoted text is done
+by @dfn{yanking}, and each line you yank will have
+@code{message-yank-prefix} prepended to it (except for quoted and
+empty lines which uses @code{message-yank-cited-prefix}). The default
+is @samp{> }.
+
+@item message-yank-cited-prefix
+@vindex message-yank-cited-prefix
+@cindex yanking
+@cindex cited
+@cindex quoting
+When yanking text from a article which contains no text or already
+cited text, each line will be prefixed with the contents of this
+variable. The default is @samp{>}. See also
+@code{message-yank-prefix}.
+
+@item message-yank-add-new-references
+@vindex message-yank-add-new-references
+@cindex yanking
+Non-@code{nil} means new IDs will be added to References field when an
+article is yanked by the command @code{message-yank-original}
+interactively. If it is a symbol @code{message-id-only}, only an ID
+from Message-ID field is used, otherwise IDs extracted from References,
+In-Reply-To and Message-ID fields are used.
+
+@item message-list-references-add-position
+@vindex message-list-references-add-position
+@cindex yanking
+Integer value means position for adding to References field when an
+article is yanked by the command @code{message-yank-original}
+interactively.
+
+@item message-indentation-spaces
+@vindex message-indentation-spaces
+Number of spaces to indent yanked messages.
+
+@item message-cite-function
+@vindex message-cite-function
+@findex message-cite-original
+@findex sc-cite-original
+@findex message-cite-original-without-signature
+@cindex Supercite
+Function for citing an original message. The default is
+@code{message-cite-original}, which simply inserts the original message
+and prepends @samp{> } to each line.
+@code{message-cite-original-without-signature} does the same, but elides
+the signature. You can also set it to @code{sc-cite-original} to use
+Supercite.
+
+@item message-suspend-font-lock-when-citing
+@vindex message-suspend-font-lock-when-citing
+If non-@code{nil}, suspend font-lock'ing while citing an original
+message. Some lazy demand-driven fontification tools (or Emacs itself)
+have a bug that they often miss a buffer to be fontified. It will
+mostly occur when Emacs prompts user for any inputs in the minibuffer.
+Setting this option to non-@code{nil} may help you to avoid unpleasant
+errors even if it is an add-hoc expedient.
+
+@item message-indent-citation-function
+@vindex message-indent-citation-function
+Function for modifying a citation just inserted in the mail buffer.
+This can also be a list of functions. Each function can find the
+citation between @code{(point)} and @code{(mark t)}. And each function
+should leave point and mark around the citation text as modified.
+
+@item message-signature
+@vindex message-signature
+String to be inserted at the end of the message buffer. If @code{t}
+(which is the default), the @code{message-signature-file} file will be
+inserted instead. If a function, the result from the function will be
+used instead. If a form, the result from the form will be used instead.
+If this variable is @code{nil}, no signature will be inserted at all.
+
+@item message-signature-file
+@vindex message-signature-file
+File containing the signature to be inserted at the end of the buffer.
+The default is @samp{~/.signature}.
+
+@end table
+
+Note that RFC1036bis says that a signature should be preceded by the three
+characters @samp{-- } on a line by themselves. This is to make it
+easier for the recipient to automatically recognize and process the
+signature. So don't remove those characters, even though you might feel
+that they ruin your beautiful design, like, totally.
+
+Also note that no signature should be more than four lines long.
+Including ASCII graphics is an efficient way to get everybody to believe
+that you are silly and have nothing important to say.
