Hm.  Message.  Hm.  If you add a Gcc header to your outgoing message,
will it be processed properly?

I'm guessing you might be using something else.

Also, please do C-h v mail-user-agent RET after starting a message
with C-x m -- does that show the right value?

And what does C-h k C-x m say?

I'm still hoping that you can get C-x m to work properly.  Then the
problem will be avoided.

But you can also switch to the *Group* buffer and hit m there, of
course.  That might be an acceptable workaround?

M-q formats a paragraph.

(add-hook 'text-mode-hook 'turn-on-auto-fill) will set things up so
that auto-fill is automatically active in text-like modes, including
message-mode.  Auto-fill means that you don't have to hit M-q most of
the time.
