According to the info manual (message)Mailing Lists, the
Mail-Followup-To header should be removed when it is empty:

> If there is one, it is left alone.  (Except if it’s empty; in that
> case, the field is removed and is not replaced with an automatically
> generated one.  This lets you disable MFT generation on a per-message
> basis.)

While the code attempted to do that, the call to `message-remove-header'
passed wrong arguments.  Since the IS-REGEXP argument was not passed,
the HEADER was considered a full header name (if I read the code right)
and therefore failed to match (since the code passed in a regexp instead
of a fixed string).

The fix is simple, remove the leading ^ and trailing :.

Change log entry as requested:

Actually remove the Mail-Followup-To header iff empty in
message-send-mail.

* lisp/gnus/message.el (message-send-mail)
[(equal "" (mail-fetch-field "mail-followup-to")]: Pass a fixed string
instead of regexp to `message-remove-header'.
