message-kill-address

message-kill-address

[Katsumi Yamaoka]

Hi,

In the CVS trunk, I found this command inhabits in message.el
(and message.texi).  The source is unknown and, what is worse,
it looks imperfect to me.  Is it really necessary?

  message-kill-address is an interactive compiled Lisp function
  in `message.el'.  It is bound to C-c M-k.
  (message-kill-address)

  Kill the address under point.

It's not in the CVS history at all, which means that it was added
before we started using CVS.  That's a long time ago.  :-)

I can't remember ever using this command.  In the other hand, now that
I know it exists, perhaps I will.  I do often remove superfluous
addresses from the Cc header, and `C-c M-k' does seem more handy than
doing it manually.  :-)
