Nope (just tried it).

As Lennart and I have said, there was some Windows-specific code that did this:

. When you hit C-c C-c, it popped up the mail client (in my case, Outlook) with
a new message window.

. The message was pre-address to the right bug list (pretest or bugs). It had
the Subject filled out.

. But the message body did not have the body that you entered in Emacs. Instead,
it had this text (still does, for Emacs 22):

  *** E-Mail body has been placed on clipboard, please paste them here! *** 

All you had to do then was use `C-v' to paste the body you wrote in place of
that "***...***" text.

P.S. I barely noticed your question to me. I haven't been reading this thread.
