This is becoming a FAQ. Anyway, are you sure? It comes from
gnus-msg, which is part of the Gnus distribution and authored by larsi
and Umeda-san. The docstring says
Start editing a mail message to be sent.
Like `message-mail', but with Gnus paraphernalia, particularly the
Gcc: header for archiving purposes.
Yes, but I believe the function and the package is there for the
`mail-user-agent' stuff in (X)Emacs. So it is the interface glue that VM,
RMAIL etc also have, and the function should probably be documented where
`mail-user-agent' is described. (And hopefully it already is, but I didn't
check.)

Sigh. I'll get on this.
I'm having trouble committing things currently, and I'd like to commit a
one-liner I sent to xemacs-patches several weeks ago first -- I sent a
mail to the cvs maintainer so hopefully it will be fixed soon.
