How to move point to the end of the message body?

How to move point to the end of the message body?

[Marcin Borkowski]

Hi list,

I'd like to get to the end of the message body (in message-mode).  This
seems to work, but I'm looking for making it better (both in terms of
style and robustness: does my check for attachments work in all
circumstances?  Should I check for anything more?).

Note: you should insert a hash before "part" below (funnily, I could
send this email with that hash - Emacs thought it's an incomplete
attachment!).

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defun mbork/message-goto-end-body ()
  "Go to end of message body (before signature and attachments)."
  (let (before-attachments)
    (setq before-attachments (goto-char (point-max)))
    (while (and (search-backward "<part " nil t)
		(eq (get-text-property (point) 'face)
		    'message-mml))
      (setq before-attachments (point)))
    (goto-char before-attachments)
    (re-search-backward message-signature-separator nil t)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

TIA,

I don't know, but I do have a package for moving
ultra-fast between the parts of a message mode buffer.

The cool thing is it works with the .mailrc abbrev
file as well!

It is called moggle and I wrote it, including the
documentation, way back (?) in 2014. I revised the
documentation just a bit today. When you are happy
with your code, post it here and I'll include it in
the package!

And what is that...?

Interesting, I'll take a look.  Of course, I will also share my code
(which, incidentally, does *a lot* more than moving across the message -
even though it's unfinished yet).  Maybe I'll put it on GitHub, but
probably not today.

Best,
