This comes from this part of message.el:

  (defcustom message-user-organization-file
    (let (orgfile)
      (dolist (f (list "/etc/organization"
                       "/etc/news/organization"
                       "/usr/lib/news/organization"))
        (when (file-readable-p f)
          (setq orgfile f)))
      orgfile)
    "Local news organization file."

file-readable-p is documented to "Return t if file FILENAME exists and
you can read it."  So I think Ffile_readable_p should not signal an
error if the file does not exist, it should return nil instead.
