Hi Patrick,
first, thanks! This solved my problem 90%. BIG Thanks!!
If you're interested in why and what's missing:

I don't know if that is even possible.....
sure it is possible. Why not?
As you probably guessed, I'm quite new at this :-)
[snip] Please show us where the subject header should begin. Should it start at the left edge of the margin or where?
Yes, and I didn't specify it because _my_ problem was how to cross the margin/text boundary. I didn't know it was so easy (shifting a hbox by \hskip-dimen)
Refering to some LaTeX class is not very helpful, since the ConTeXt-source-readers don't use LaTeX very often :)
:-) You're right, obviously..
Try this one. If it does not do what you want, please be exact about your specification!
That's most of what I wanted!! Great. I'm still puzzling over how to change the width of the hbox to \textwidth+\marginwidth\margindistance, but for now I'm saved. Why do I want a wider hbox? I print white fonts on black background, so the left shifted \hbox with a width of (I assume) \textwidth looks different from what I wanted. But it works for now... Have a nice week, Mathias
