[Message part 4 (text/plain, inline)]
Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug <at> gnu.org mailing list.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug.  If you can, give
a recipe starting from `emacs -Q':

Despite setting mail-user-agent to mh-e-user-agent through Customize,
Tools menu shows "Read mail (with RMAIL)", and "Send mail (with Gnus)."
Same behavior when starting Emacs with "emacs -Q" and setting using
(setq mail-user-agent 'mh-e-user-agent).  Same menu after starting Emacs
with "emacs -Q" and setting read-mail-command using (setq
read-mail-command 'mh-rmail).

,----[ C-h v mail-user-agent RET ]
| mail-user-agent is a variable defined in `simple.el'.
| Its value is mh-e-user-agent
| 
| Documentation:
| Your preference for a mail composition package.
| Various Emacs Lisp packages (e.g. Reporter) require you to compose an
| outgoing email message.  This variable lets you specify which
| mail-sending package you prefer.
| 
| Valid values include:
| 
|   `message-user-agent'  -- use the Message package.
|                            See Info node `(message)'.
|   `sendmail-user-agent' -- use the Mail package.
|                            See Info node `(emacs)Sending Mail'.
|   `mh-e-user-agent'     -- use the Emacs interface to the MH mail system.
|                            See Info node `(mh-e)'.
|   `gnus-user-agent'     -- like `message-user-agent', but with Gnus
|                            paraphernalia, particularly the Gcc: header for
|                            archiving.
| 
| Additional valid symbols may be available; check with the author of
| your package for details.  The function should return non-nil if it
| succeeds.
| 
| See also `read-mail-command' concerning reading mail.
| 
| You can customize this variable.
| 
| This variable was introduced, or its default value was changed, in
| version 23.2 of Emacs.
