Same here:
,----[ <f1> f message-mail RET ]
| message-mail is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `message.el'.
| (message-mail &optional TO SUBJECT OTHER-HEADERS CONTINUE SWITCH-FUNCTION YANK-ACTION SEND-ACTIONS)
|
| Start editing a mail message to be sent.
| OTHER-HEADERS is an alist of header/value pairs.

The only thing we could do to solve this is to change
