Interesting, we have opposite approaches...

"--text follows this line--" rings a bell, but
I haven't seen it in ages. Maybe it is
something I configured away ages ago...

Also, I don't have "message-separator". I do
have:

    message-form-letter-separator
    message-signature-separator
    message-unsent-separator

none of which I see around, when I examine
their values.
