I've been away from the list for a while. Not sure if you got an
answer that didn't involve not using supercite. I've been using the
following for some time now.

Actually using this in a message is a somewhat manual process but I do
it rarely enough that doesn't bother me much. Essentially it's yank the
message, selected it and sc-uncite to remove the >'s, move to the top
of it, electric insert the reference in the above format and then
message-goto-body to start writing from the top.
