How about the following?

(setq message-elide-ellipsis "\n[snipped %%l lines, %%c chars]\n\n")

(defun rs-message-elide-region (b e)
"Elide the text in the region.
An ellipsis (from `message-elide-ellipsis') will be inserted where the
text was killed."
(interactive "r")
(let ((lines (count-lines b e))
(chars (- e b)))
(kill-region b e)
(insert (format-spec message-elide-ellipsis
`((?l . ,lines)
(?c . ,chars))))))

You can use labels.

in .gnus

The key C-c C-e currently elides a region of text and produces the
following

[...]

Can it have some customised options to show the number of lines of
text elided and also some text that the user can add? Something like

[snipped 5 lines]
[5 lines of irrelevant text snipped]

Ideally, [...] or [snipped x lines] can be made default with the
option of the user being able to change the text.

Hi Ross,

I have a bunch of emails backed up from Mail.app (apple mail) and I also
have some more in Evolution and I would like to move all of them to
gnus/maildir as I have moved back to linux. Any idea on how I can do
that ?

Thank you.

Sorry it didn't work for you, although I'm not surprised. It was a bit
of a hack. For me, it works but only
with cygwin and windows, and not on ubuntu. I'm afraid I don't have
the resources or the knowledge to
fix this up better than currently.

It's a worry for me; my email existence is hanging by the thread of a
bad hack. Some day soon, our
server config will change, and I'll be left without email. I don't
understand why Gnus can read email
straightforwardly with openssl, but not send it. Nor what everyone
else using Gnus to send mail is
doing. Is there another option that I am not aware of?

Thanks for the help. I figured this was probably in the docs somewhere,
but one of the difficulties I have with gnus (the main difficulty, which
is nested inside the main advantage of gnus) is that there are so many
options and settings that I always have difficulty finding the right
item in the documentation. So, thanks for that.

Also, I notice that on this list (and on the main emacs list) many of
you emacs adepts provide doc or code snippets (as below) in a neat
little formatted block. I assume, being emacs adepts, that you do not
type in all those little dashes and vertical lines. You have a function,
surely, that does all the legwork for you. And it's probably called
something like region-format-as-extract, and you probably have a
shortcut key for it, like 'C-c fae', and so on. So, how do I do that?

Cheers.
