It already behaves differently: The user cannot trim the inserted
instructions. E.g. I often strip the part "Please write ... mailing
list." since it gives no useful to the reader, whereas "Please
describe ... the bug:" makes it obvious that the recipe follows.
When `mail-user-agent' is 'message-user-agent or 'gnus-user-agent it
behaves as expected.
Bye, Reiner.
