I do it with :pserver when reading, and with :ext when committing.  That
means patches are generated with :pserver.

But I think this is barking up the wrong tree, since a later message of
mine got truncated in the middle of a sentence, and I just had a problem
earlier today with sending a PDF file because of a truncation.  This
seems to be a generic CVS XEmacs + Gnus problem.  If I can figure out
how to trigger it reliably, I'll see if I can track it down.
