Everyone:
There already is a function very similar to what I wanted -
have a look at the "S y" command, from the summary buffer.
Not sure if this requires supercite or not (I use supercite).
This command will prompt you for a message buffer, and automatically
insert the cited version of the current message at the current
cursor position *in that buffer*.
Now, I imagine that it should be easy to adapt that routine to
1. copy the entire message, and to
2. quote it with the appropriate MIME tags.
In fact, I suspect 1 has already been implemented for the above command
(I haven't verified this).
However, I may have missed another proposal to do the same thing...
I apologise if I am just repeating stuff that is already widely
known.
