When replying to an email, gnus constructs an In-Reply-To: header that
contains the message-id of the originating email followed by a phrase of
the form:
(User's message of "Wed, 17 Nov 2021 22:16:04 -0800")
While allowed, the addition of this parenthetical phrase has been made
obsolete as of RFC5322. I suggest removing it, or wrapping it in a
defcustom 'message-strict-rfc5322. Any preferences?

Iʼd remove it, document its removal, but have a defcustom to get it
back.

Could it still be relevant when interacting with clients that confirm to
that rfc?

I donʼt see how: that RFC makes that phrasing obsolete, so there will
no doubt be a client that at some point interprets the header
strictly, in which you donʼt want to be outputting the old format, so
we should output the new one by default.

If you decide to remove it, please make that conditional on a
defcustom, so that interested users will have a way to get back old
behavior, when they need that.
Thanks.
