A message-mode buffer can be news, mail or both. E.g. when adding Cc
to a news posting, the buffer also becomes a mail buffer (see
`message-news-p' and `message-mail-p'). I think modifying key
bindings depending on `message-news-p'/`message-mail-p' would be
confusing.

AFAIK, both aren't in any RFC. But at least Mail-Followup-To is quite
useful (and also supported by other MUA like mutt).
Bye, Reiner.
