-You can use the @code{fortune} program to create signatures for mail or
-network news messages. (@code{fortune} prints a random---with luck,
-interesting---adage, originally inspired by `fortune cookie' messages.)
-To generate signatures, add @code{fortune-to-signature} to
-@code{mail-setup-hook} and/or @code{message-setup-hook} as appropriate.
-You can automatically cut regions to a Fortune file with @kbd{M-x
-fortune-from-region} and compile your own Fortune database.

-@kbd{M-x footnote-mode} toggles a minor mode for making footnotes in
-mail or network news messages. It is intended for use specifically with
-Message mode but is not specific to that. It provides commands and
-keybindings to insert footnotes, go to a given note, delete a note and
-renumber notes. See the group @code{footnote} for customization and the
-mode's documentation for keybindings. To set up Footnote mode for all
-messages, add @code{footnote-mode} to @code{mail-mode-hook} and/or
-@code{message-mode-hook} as appropriate.
