Sorry, I have no idea what I'm supposed to be looking at. The page 
contains a lot of text (some of it looking Emacs-y), as well as lots of 
unreadable control characters.

Again, have you tried reproducing the problem starting with 'emacs -Q'?

And what typescript are you referring to here? I only know of a 
programming language with that name, one that compiles to JavaScript.

I don't understand this paragraph.

There's no maximum number of lines. After you type in the subject, Emacs 
opens a Message buffer, where you can type as long a report as you like.
