The posting styles used to work by setting variables locally in the
Message buffer.  This mechanism made it quite breakable and somewhat
unpredictable.  The new mechanism sets no variables, but inserts (or
arranges for insertions) directly into the buffer, thereby letting
people see what the posting style has arranged.
