Thanks for you answer.
Well the procedure is complete: C-f moves the point until you reach the
end of the message and then it changes the prompt. If you do C-e as I
explained before C-f, the point should already be at the end of the
message and therefore it can't move further.
I tried to add a slash, the problem is the same, as demonstrated in the
attached gif.
