Subject: 24.3.50; Disable mail menu items unless configured
Date: Sat, 20 Jul 2013 18:22:46 -0700 (PDT)

Please remove (not :visible) or disable (not :enable) all menu items
that have to do with mail or news unless Emacs is actually
configured for these, i.e., unless the menu items actually work.

In my case, on Windows, none of these are operational:

`Read Net News (Gnus)'
`Read Mail (with RMAIL)'
`Send Mail (with Gnus Message)'

It is impolite and disrespectul of users to pollute the menu space
with items and menus that are not usable.
