Message mode started out as a consolidation of the old Gnus news mode
and sendmail.el.  The idea was to create a mode applicable for both
doing news and mail -- hence the name "Message".

(I had also expected Rmail (and the other Emacs mailers) to switch to
Message, since it is (or at least, was) a superset of mail mode (and
has enough hooks in it to tie into just about anything), but that
obviously, er, hasn't happened.)
