+;;; This was a nice idea, for preventing accidental modification of
+;;; the separator.   But I found it also prevented or obstructed
+;;; certain deliberate operations, such as copying the separator line
+;;; up to the top to send myself a copy of an already sent outgoing message
+;;; and other things.  So I turned it off.  --rms.
